Things to Watch: Next 30 Days
Some potential events that we’re tracking closely which could have a market impact in the near future:
- The real data. After seven weeks of educated guessing, we're about to see actual jobs and inflation data again. No surprises will mean no market movement. But notable job loss or inflation spike scenarios could create opportunities to gain investors' attention by highlighting bonds or real assets.
- A ruling on tariffs. There's speculation that the Supreme Court could deliver their tariff case ruling before the end of the year. If that happens, the resulting uncertainty around what will come next could provide a chance to remind investors about alternatives like gold and the potential benefits of active management.
- December FOMC. Opinions about the December meeting are tracking towards no rate change - and there's little chance of an increase. So there could be an opportunity to ready communications for a 25 or even 50bps rate drop as that might drive investors to turn risk again.
- Fed Chair nominee. Related to the December FOMC meeting is a looming announcement of the new Fed Chair nominee. If Hassett is the pick, Fed politicization could jump forward as a concern and drive interest in value and "safe havens."
