April 25, 2019 Headlines
It was another quiet overnight session with no major macro headlines driving activity. Treasuries are little changed this morning, but U.S. equities are opening lower despite solid earnings reports from Microsoft and Facebook. Investors will continue to focus on earnings over the next several days, while keeping a close eye on any developments on the trade front. The next FOMC meeting will take place next Wednesday, but it isn’t expected to result any new meaningful information. The first estimate of Q1 GDP will be released tomorrow, and the March PCE report will be released on Monday.
