FedEx

(FDX) had investors concerned about what the shipping giant’s warning might mean for the larger global economy.

The Dow fell 4.1% last week, the S&P declined 4.8%, and the Nasdaq dropped 5.5%. The three indexes have finished with losses four of the last five weeks.

The timing of FedEx’s warning wasn’t great with investors already nervous that another aggressive move by the Federal Reserve on interest rates could cause the economy to enter a recession. The central bank has raised interest rates by 75 basis points at each of its last two policy meetings in June and July.

The Fed decision on rates will be announced Wednesday afternoon.

Citi economists expect the Fed to boost rates by 75 basis points, saying that a hike of 100 basis points was possible though not likely.

“A surprisingly large 100bp hike would be one way to send a strong, hawkish message, but we think most Fed officials will judge the potential costs as outweighing the benefits,” the economists said. “Financial conditions broadly tightened significantly following last week’s inflation data and there is not the same need to push against a loosening of conditions that the Fed faced as equity prices rallied over the summer.”

Consumer price data for August, released last week, showed prices rose at an 8.3% annualized rate, higher than the estimate for an 8% increase. That’s a slowdown from ເດືອນ​ກໍ​ລະ​ກົດ and the second month of declining inflation though inflation has been falling more slowly than expected.
