🏠Why Working from Home May Kick Off a 1990’s Style Boom🏠

Good morning. Before it ended with the tech bubble, the prosperity of the 1990s...
It's the monthly jobs numbers today and they're not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May.

Good morning. Before it ended with the tech bubble, the prosperity of the 1990s occurred in part to declining inflation expectations and rapidly improving technology. That led to massive increases in productivity. But it was also the age of the office cubicle and drab corporate culture, lampooned most notably in the cartoon strip Dilbert.

With a rising number of workers looking to work remotely full time, or follow a hybrid model of being partially in office while working from home some days, companies are acquiescing. That's partially due to a labor shortage, but it may also be because signs show that productivity is starting to improve—and a rise in productivity was a big reason behind the rapid growth and low inflation of the 1990s, a policy that could help unwind pandemic-era monetary measures and still keep the economy growing.

The Ultimate Semiconductor Shortage Play

The latest statements from companies relying on semiconductors for operations is still grim. A shortage persists, and likely won't be fully resolved this year. That's likely to impact everything from consumer electronics this holiday season (it's coming sooner than you think), to the production of new automobiles.

While a number of companies are working to ramp up production, the actual physical manufacturing is likely resulting in delays, as only a few organizations can actually manufacture at scale.

- Michael Arone, chief investment strategist for State Street Global Advisors, on Fed Chairman Jerome Powell's speech on Friday, which was met with approval by the stock market, potentially allowing the central bank to scale back its asset purchasing program without causing a major selloff.
