Accentuating the positive – S&P hits new high
from NAB Morning Call
Friday 18th July 2025NAB Markets Research Disclaimer Financial Services Guide | Information on our services - NABThe S&P hit a new high today, passing 65,300for the first time. Why? Well, the economic data out over night was largely good news. Retail sales were stronger than expected in June, the Philly Fed Manufacturing Index perked up, initial jobless claims fell. As Phil suggests to NAB’s Gavin Friend, there was a lot to like. The threat of looming tariffs seems to be largely ignored, as though investors don’t think they will happen. It was a less rosy picture in Australia and the UK -in both cases unemployment rose more than expected. Gavin talks through whether these numbers will have any impact on central bank decisions.
