“Any slowdown is swiftly reflected in the housing sector, which in turn impacts retail. It’s a fragile cycle that initiates with housing, which is why I’ll be keeping a close eye on these figures.”
Wednesday will also be significant as the Federal Reserve’s Open Market Committee convenes and Jerome Powell, the Fed’s chair, will address the market. Cramer noted that the latest inflation figures, including the Consumer Price Index and the Producer Price Index, have been relatively encouraging, which might indicate that inflation is manageable. However, he warned that some areas of the economy continue to face persistent high prices.
Additionally, according to Cramer, there is a potential for new tariffs, possibly introduced as early as next week, which could entail a 25% tariff on all imported vehicles, particularly from Germany, Japan, and South Korea. He further commented:
“I fear the president may choose Wednesday to announce significant tariffs, so be prepared. While the market is currently oversold, it might stay that way by Wednesday and could handle any news regarding auto tariffs, but you must be ready.”
Ultimately, Cramer reiterated that the direction of the market this week will be more influenced by actions from the White House and the Federal Reserve than by the earnings reports of individual firms.
