Consumers were willing to spend during the holidays and will remain inclined to do so as long as real income gains more than offset the drag from elevated interest rates and tight lending standards, Oren Klachkin, Nationwide financial markets economist, via Yahoo Finance.

We think this narrative will persist in early 2024 but then lose steam as the job market deteriorates, Oren Klachkin, Nationwide financial markets economist, via Yahoo Finance.

Yahoo Finance reports that nine of the 13 categories tracked in the Census Bureau data saw month-over-month increases.

The December report will be scrutinized by investors looking for the U.S. economy to pull off a "soft landing," where inflation falls without a major recession.

According to Christopher Waller, a member of the Fed's Board of Governors, economic activity and labor markets are in "good shape," a sentiment backed by Morgan Stanley chief economist Ellen Zentner.

Trump Erupts in Fury at Fed Chair Powell, Demands His Termination Over ‘Complete Mess’ Reports

Trump has launched a fiery attack on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, calling for his immediate termination after slamming the Fed’s latest economic report as a “complete mess.” Trump accused Powell of being “too late and wrong” on interest rate policy and compared him unfavorably to the European Central Bank, which just issued its seventh rate cut in a year. The outburst follows Powell’s stark warning that Trump’s sweeping tariffs could drive the U.S. into stagflation. With Powell’s term running through 2026 and legal protections in place, Trump’s demand has ignited a constitutional debate over presidential power and the independence of America’s central bank. #TrumpVsPowell #JeromePowell #FedChair #TrumpTweets #JayPowell #TrumpNews #TrumpBlastFed #FederalReserve #TrumpEconomicPolicy #TrumpAdministration #PowellNews #TrumpTwitter #USFedChair #TrumpTradePolicy #Trump ~PR.152~HT.410~GR.124~
