The Dow transports are"a barometer for future economic activity," said Chuck Carlson, chief executive officer at Horizon Investment Services."They may be indicating that while a recession isn't imminent, that there is probably a slowdown in the economy that's ahead here." Data this week showed the U.S. economy grew at a 1.3% annualized rate in the first quarter, down from the 3.4% fourth-quarter 2023 pace. A key test for the economy's strength and for markets comes with the June 7 release of the monthly U.S. jobs report.
Matthew Miskin, co-chief investment strategist at John Hancock Investment Management, said it could be harder for the broader market to break significantly higher unless the transports pick up steam.
