CPI and PPI may be very telling on how business reacted to the threat of tariffs but will not capture any effect of the April 2nd tariffs. The tariffs, and Chinese retaliation, are set to take effect this week as well, unless an agreement is reached before Wednesday. By Friday we have major financial institutions coming in with Q1 earnings but more importantly, they will have to deliver guidance and outlook for Q2 and 2025 estimates, this is where a lot of people will be looking as JPM is expecting a recession if the tariffs are not lifted.
