Good MorningThe equities market gave up two days worth of gains on Thursday as rising COVID-19 cases stoke fears. The number of new cases has been hitting new highs on a daily basis in recent weeks and may lead to another round of economic shutdowns. The first round of shutdowns trimmed 32% off of U.S. GDP, if there is a second the market fears the damage could be far worse. If there is no good news on Friday the market could be in for another decline.
On the economic front, the number of new claims for unemployment insurance is falling. The number of new claims fell 22,000 over the last week to hit the lowest level since April as Americans trickle back to work. On the inflation front, Consumer Level inflation was unchanged over the last month and might be evidence of slackening demand. Friday will bring the latest read on Producer level inflation in the form of PPI but the data is not expected to move the market.
