😤This Sector Will Give You a Heads Up for the Next Market Decline

Good morning. There are many economic indicators out there – most of which aren't too valuable...
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. There are many economic indicators out there – most of which aren't too valuable once the data is collected and reported on. However, some data is fairly timely. That includes data from credit card providers on items such as outstanding debts and loan delinquencies.

Right now, we're seeing a move over $1 trillion in total credit card debt for the first time ever. And interest rates on that debt are rising to their highest levels. Plus, over the past two years, the percentage of cardholders carrying a balance has increased from 39 percent to 47 percent.

Those trends point to a strained consumer. If the trend on balances and delinquent payments worsens, it's possible that could eventually show up in declining consumer demand – which would likely move markets lower. Traders and investors alike should remain cautious in the coming few weeks, and look to credit trends for a sign of improvement.

Now here's the rest of the news:

Stick With 2023's Winning Stocks of the Year
Markets tend to move in trends. Since bottoming out late last year, the trend has been higher, even with a few hiccups along the way like the drop in early August.

With stocks trending higher, last year's big losers have gained more ground than average. That trend will likely continue as well. That's good news for investors looking to catch up this year who may have missed out on the first part of the market rally.

Job Growth Continues, But Unemployment Rate Ticks Higher

The economy grew by 187,000 jobs in the U.S. in August, according to the latest data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That's just over expectations for gains of 170,000.

Saudi Aramco Considers Share Sale

Robotics Sales Decline for Second Straight Quarter

Quote of the Day
We're expecting globally a slowdown in growth, and that will have an impact on [emerging markets] Asia through trade conditions as well as access to financing in the region. There are still risks out there that inflation could prove stickier ... than currently expected, and that would lead to higher risks for longer and slower growth.
- Marie Diron, managing director at Moody's Investors Service, on why the ratings agency expects a global slowdown in growth in the quarters ahead, driven by higher interest rates and a slowdown in China.
