SEPTEMBER 7 WEEKLY INSIGHTS
U.S. manufacturing expands as AI-driven productivity gains build momentum
- The U.S. Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index remained firmly in expansion territory at 53.9, matching last month’s strong reading and signaling continued strength in industrial activity despite a higher-rate environment.
- Recent economic growth is driven more by gains in output per worker than by increases in the size of the workforce, highlighting an increasingly productivity-led expansion.
- As AI adoption broadens across industries, businesses are unlocking efficiency gains supporting higher production levels while limiting labor-cost pressures.
- With average industry use still around 21% for many AI applications, productivity gains may increase, creating the potential for a longer-lasting investment and earnings cycle as adoption accelerates. (Source: JP Morgan, ISM®)
Small caps pause after strong rally, providing opportunity for long-term investors
- After rallying more than 20.8% year-to-date, small-cap stocks appear due for a natural pause as investors digest gains and reassess monetary policy outlook.
- Recent Jackson Hole commentary reinforced while inflation pressures are stabilizing, the Federal Reserve remains willing to hold rates higher for longer, keeping financial conditions somewhere between neutral and restrictive.
- Higher borrowing costs continue to weigh disproportionately on smaller companies, which typically have greater reliance on external financing and floating-rate debt than large-cap peers.
- For long-term investors, pullback could present an opportunity to review and potentially add to small-cap allocations, particularly given their attractive long-term return prospects once monetary policy becomes less restrictive. (Source: Morningstar)
Healthy municipal fundamentals create option to take selective credit risk
- The additional yield compensates investors for taking measured credit risk while remaining in the investment-grade market, making BBB municipals an attractive source of tax-efficient income.
- 10-year BBB municipal bonds offer tax-equivalent yields above 6.4%, compared to roughly 4.8% on 10-year Treasuries, creating a meaningful income advantage for investors in higher tax brackets.
- Municipal fundamentals remain supportive, with healthy state and local government finances, historically low default rates, and credit pressures largely isolated to specific issuers rather than the broader market.
- Strong reinvestment demand, favorable municipal-to-Treasury valuations, and projected principal and coupon cash flows provide a constructive backdrop for selectively adding municipal credit exposure. (Source: Columbia Threadneedle)
