Editor's Note: Below is a brief excerpt from today's Early Look written by CEO Keith McCullough. Click here to learn more about the Early Look. 

On the Consumption Cycle, yesterday’s news = continued #acceleration on a trending basis, but not an absolute #acceleration to a new cycle high. By that I mean:

  1. Real PCE (Personal Consumption Expenditure) #accelerated to +2.7% y/y in APR vs. +2.4% in MAR
  2. Vs. Consumption Cycle peak growth rates of +2.9% y/y in NOV/DEC 2017 (post Tax Reform giddiness)
