Recent Economic Developments And Longer-Term Challenges, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome H. Powell, At The Citizens Budget Commission 87th Annual Awards Dinner, New York, New York

Date 01/03/2019

It is a pleasure to speak here this evening at the 87th Awards Dinner. Tonight I will start with the near-term outlook for the U.S. economy. Then I will turn to a topic that is inspired by the Citizens Budget Commission's mission statement, which focuses on the "well-being of future New Yorkers." I imagine that future New Yorkers attending this dinner in 50 years may not look back on the near-term outlook in February 2018 as very interesting or important. So, tonight, after a brief review of the here and now, I will focus on an issue that is likely to be of more lasting importance: the need for policies that will support and encourage participation in the labor force, promote longer-term growth in our rapidly evolving economy, and spread the benefits of prosperity as widely as possible.

S&P Dow Jones Indices: Europe Dashboard

Date 28/02/2019

Europe   

• Benefitting from global risk-on sentiment, European equities jumped in February. The S&P Europe 350® gained 4% on the month and is now up 11% on the year. Momentum strategies enjoyed the tailwinds, with the S&P Europe 350 Momentum Index gaining 5%. 
• With less than four weeks to go until Brexit, U.K. equities rallied, sending the S&P United Kingdom up 2% on the month. In a major concession, U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May promised Parliament an opportunity to vote to extend Article 50 by up to three months and to prevent a no-deal Brexit, if it rejected her updated withdrawal agreement. 
• European fixed income markets were not quite as forgiving as equity markets. Sovereign Bond indices were generally down in February, as recession concerns, slowing growth and Brexit loomed large. The S&P Italy Sovereign Bond Index was down 1.3%, while U.K. Gilts were down 0.6% on the month. Investment Grade corporates did not face the same pressure however, as the S&P Eurozone Investment Grade Corporate Bond index gained 0.6%.
