C-MACC Sunday Thematic & Weekly Recap 127
Could Dow Be Right? If So How Do We Square The Macro Data?
- Dow’s more (but not very) conservative guidance is at odds with the macro data, especially recent global consumer confidence reports – can both be right?
- Dow’s focus on consumable markets offers the company a significant cushion versus those with more durable focused portfolios – food sales should not slow
- While consumer confidence is falling, US consumer spending remains resilient – the level of interest rates is likely more important than the rate of change
- Supply chains are improving and while some still have some issues, the easing of trade impediments may make it worse for some US and European producers
- Otherwise, we look at the ineffectiveness of ESG investing in encouraging change, more concerning macro data, and US natural gas supply.
