\u201cGerman industry ended the year on a very weak footing. The cumulative decline from its late 2010s peak is approaching 20% (around half of that for GVA) with the weakness broad-based. Leading indicators and likely US tariffs dash hopes of a quick turnaround. Wake up call\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

US Data Sinks Bets on an H1 2025 Fed Rate Cut<\/h2>\n

Friday\u2019s US Jobs Report and Michigan Consumer Sentiment Survey impacted expectations for a Fed rate cut in H1 2025.<\/p>\n

The US unemployment rate fell to 4.0% in January, down from 4.1% in December, even as the participation rate increased. Average hourly earnings rose 4.1% year-on-year, matching December\u2019s increase, signaling labor market resilience.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, inflation expectations spooked investors. The Michigan Inflation Expectations Index jumped from 3.3% in January to 4.3% in February. Expectations of higher inflation could boost near-term spending, potentially fueling demand-driven inflation.<\/p>\n

Wall Street Tumbled as Traders Braced for Tariff Fallout<\/h2>\n

US equity markets<\/a> posted losses on Friday, February 7 as traders reacted to the US data and Trump\u2019s tariff warnings. The Nasdaq Composite<\/a> Index reversed its Thursday gains, sliding 1.36%, while the Dow<\/a> and S&P 500<\/a> fell 0.99% and 0.95%, respectively.<\/p>\n

Despite beating earnings estimates, Amazon.com (AMZN<\/a>) dropped by 4.05% on a weaker Q1 outlook. Apple Inc. (AAPL<\/a>) fell 2.40% after reports that China may launch<\/a> a probe into its policies and fees.<\/p>\n

US Economic Calendar: Inflation in Focus<\/h2>\n

On Monday, February 10, consumer inflation expectations require consideration after Friday\u2019s Michigan Consumer Sentiment Survey. Economists expect consumer inflation expectations to rise 3.1% in January, up from 3.0% in December.<\/p>\n

A higher inflation reading could support a more hawkish Fed rate path, potentially weighing on risk assets. A higher-for-longer rate path may raise borrowing costs, affecting earnings. Conversely, softer inflation expectations could boost demand for German-listed stocks.<\/p>\n
