Powell Disappoints Stocks, Labor Disappoints Bonds (E151)

After reviewing stock, bond and commodity markets for January (0:54) and for the week ended Feb. 2 (3:07), Jeff Mayberry and Eric Dhall turn to the week’s packed schedule (6:00) of macro news, including Friday’s bond market-displeasing labor market news. For the Topic of the week (16:30), they discuss the guidance coming out of the Jan. 31 Federal Open Market Committee, which as expected left official short-term rates unchanged, and Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s stock market-disappointing statements during his post-FOMC news conference. The Feb. 5-9 week will be light on macro news (28:48), although Eric Dhall expects to dig into the next Senior Loan Officer Opinion Survey on Bank Lending Practices (SLOOS), due Feb. 5.
