In this Protect Your Assets Market Briefing, David Hollander, aka The Sandman, dives into the recent jobs data that paints a complex picture of the current US labor market. Despite a surprising uptick in February's employment numbers with 275,000 new jobs, a significant revision to January's figures and a rising jobless rate highlight a slowing labor market. This slowdown, coupled with a dip in hourly wages, suggests a cooling period for inflation, potentially easing recent concerns. The Sandman also examines the ISM manufacturing and services employment indexes, both of which indicate contraction in their respective sectors for February. These movements signal a shift that could lead the Federal Reserve to adjust interest rates later this year.

The economic data in the US is still showing good numbers. The purchaser manufacturing index, which came out this week, had a pretty stellar 56. The estimates were 51.9. Anything over 50 is seen as an expansion for the economy and this measures the economic health for manufacturing and service. Plus, the unemployment numbers were very good this past Thursday, and we still see the yield curve, although it's getting closer to the 10-2 inversion, is flattening out. It still is not inverted. The leading economic indicator composite also shows that we're still in solid economic growth territory. Does that mean we're in for another record year, or is volatile and a market correction on the horizon?

The age-old technical system, which has historically outperformed, is not decidedly bearish yet. So, how do we play this? What should we be looking at right now in our portfolios?
As promised markets hit correction territory this past week. Russia launched a full invasion of Ukraine. The Dow for the week was only off 0.1%, year to date down 6.3%.

We haven't seen that since the COVID lockdowns. The NASDAQ finished the week up 1.1%; for the year, it's down 12 and a half. The 10-year Treasury was trading at 1.97, and oil finished the week at 91.91—up 22% for the year.
