Fed Rate Cuts: What It Means For Wholesale Distribution and Manufacturing
Manage episode 435841199 series 3444167
This week, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell all but signed off on an upcoming rate cut. The market responded immediately, and a collective cheer went up among businesses and consumers alike.
But the question remains: how much of a cut will we see? And will there be multiple small cuts over time or a large single cut to supercharge growth? Oh, and does this mean a soft landing for the economy - no recession?
More importantly, what does this mean for wholesale distribution?
In this episode, Kevin and Tom look at all the implications of an upcoming rate cut (aside from the prospect of a lost bet and a steak dinner), including how jobless claims, business activity, and the general state of the economy factor into what's ahead.
And of course, we have a deep analysis of all this week's news in AI, B2B eCommerce, M&A, cybersecurity and supply chain!
