1 week ago | pro.thestreet.com | Chris Versace

We have received one of the final pieces of economic data ahead of the Fed concludes its latest policy meeting. Much like Friday’s stronger-than-expected April Employment Report, ISM’s April Service PMI came in at 51.6, nicely ahead of the market forecast of 50.6 and ahead of March’s 50.8 reading. Two things stand out to us. First, that April print of 51.6 is below the 52.3 average for Q1 2025, indicating the part of the economy that drives 85%-90% is still growing but at a slower pace.

1 month ago | pro.thestreet.com | Helene Meisler |Doug Kass |Chris Versace |Carley Garner |James Deporre

The market’s technical action improved on Monday due to some tariff delays and dovish comments from a Fed member, but pessimism about economic conditions is building as first-quarter earnings season starts.
