Cool Enough For Cuts
U.S. equity markets climbed to fresh record highs this past week after relatively benign inflation data and weak employment data cleared the path for the Fed to resume rate cuts. While CPI and PPI readings continued to show a modest reacceleration in price pressures from their post-pandemic lows earlier this year, both remained "cool enough" to permit a policy pivot. The Fed is widely expected to cut reference rates by 25 basis points to a 4.25% upper bound, which follows a nine-month "pause" since the last reduction last December.

Cousins Properties: Impressive Recent Q2 Results Lead To A Bullish Call On This REIT
Cousins Properties gets rated a 'Buy' for my initial coverage, agreeing with today's consensus shown from Wall St. and the quant system. Upside factors are portfolio growth, strong profit margins and FFO growth, a +14% expected upside to the share price, and a low D/E vs peers. The dividend growth case has not been stable, although dividend investors may appreciate the nearly 5% yield.

Behind The (Revised) Curve
U.S. equity markets fell sharply this week, while benchmark interest rates retreated to three-month lows, after revised employment data showed that job growth was far weaker than initially reported. The BLS payrolls report showed softer-than-expected hiring in July and the steepest two-month downward revisions to jobs growth since 2020, raising concern that the Fed may be "behind the curve." The downward revisions came days after Fed Chair Powell used it as the primary evidence for "solid" labor markets, which justified the FOMC's decision to keep rates in "restrictive" territory.
