Philly Fed Survey: What the Data Shows and Your Portfolio
A Distilled Perspective Commentary from Patrick T Bulger Analytics
Let’s dive into the quick of it. Here we go:
Are we seeing the "tariff pull forward" effect?
A "wave in" of orders.
Followed by a "wave out"?
The latest data suggests so.
Examples:
Today’s Philly Fed Manufacturing Business Outlook Survey
• New Orders Negative
• Employment Weak
• Delivery Times Negative
• Prices Paid Up
• Prices Received Weak
🎯Key Takeaways for your portfolio:
Our Interpretation is Weak to negative, Tariff pull forward wave out.
Peak in 2021, lower peak in 2024. We do not see this ending until the data convincingly has a sustained reversal.
Summary, erosion of underlying macro condition continues.
Key Conviction:
These views are supported by other reinforcing data as Job Weakness, Consumer Sentiment, Finance, Refinance, Debt and more.
