Good morning friends!<\/span><\/p>\n

Futures are flat as traders remain on edge following Monday\u2019s rout.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s get right to it!<\/span><\/p>\n

October Trade Deficit Jumps Less Than Expected<\/span><\/h2>\n

The U.S. trade deficit rose less than expected in October.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Commerce Department reported that gap jumped 5.4% to $78.2 billion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That was lower than economists\u2019 expectations for the deficit to rise to $80 billion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Exports fell 0.7% while imports rose 0.6%.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Jamie Dimon Predicts Recession in Mid-2023<\/span><\/h2>\n

JPMorgan Chase <\/b>(JPM) CEO Jamie Dimon is expecting inflation to push the U.S. economy into a recession next year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In an interview with <\/span>CNBC<\/span><\/a> this morning, Dimon said consumers are currently in good shape with $1.5 trillion in excess savings from pandemic stimulus.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Currently, consumers are spending 10% more than they did in 2021.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But Dimon said, \u201cInflation is eroding everything I just said, and that trillion and a half dollars will run out sometime mid year next year.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

He predicted that \u201cmay very well derail the economy and cause a mild or hard recession that people worry about.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

United CEO Warns of Business Travel Slowing<\/span><\/h2>\n

United Airlines <\/b>(UAL) CEO Scott Kirby told <\/span>CNBC<\/span><\/a> today that business travel demand has \u201cplateaued\u201d.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But Kirby said revenue is still rising thanks to strong demand for leisure travel and capacity restraints keeping prices high.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He said, \u201cIt feels like business travel, and this probably is indicative of pre-recessionary kind of behavior, has plateaued even though our total revenues are still going up.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Kirby said the airline\u2019s data currently shows no signs of a recession, but they are forecasting a \u201cmild recession induced by the Fed.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Traders Anticipate Rate Hike Pivot<\/span><\/h2>\n

CME Group\u2019s <\/span>FedWatch<\/span><\/a> Tool shows more traders are expecting the Fed to pivot to a smaller rate hike next week.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That tool shows 79.4% now anticipating a 50 basis point move with 20.6% expecting another 75 basis point hike.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That prediction comes despite the release of hot economic data in recent days, including the November jobs report.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Fed Chair said earlier this month that it may be appropriate to start slowing the pace of rate hikes at the December meeting.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But he also warned they still have a long way to go to reach price stability.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Oil Prices Fall On U.S. Dollar Strength, Recession Fears<\/span><\/h2>\n

Oil prices are lower this morning as the U.S. dollar continues to strengthen and economic fears grip the market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

West Texas Intermediate crude futures are down 1.5% to $75.75 bbl while Brent crude futures are down 1.5% to $81.50 bbl.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Both contracts recorded their largest daily drop in two weeks on Monday following hot data on the U.S. services sector.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The recent release of hot economic data has prompted more fears the Fed will drive the economy into a recession.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In Case You Missed It<\/span><\/h2>\n

  • The ISM Services PMI rose unexpectedly in November. The index rose to 56.5% from 54.4% vs expectations for a drop to 53.7%.
