The revised inflation forecast by the White House could impact the SPY ETF. Higher inflation may lead to increased interest rates, which could negatively affect the stock market.
The SPY ETF tracks the S&P 500, which is a broad representation of the US stock market. Higher inflation often leads to increased interest rates as a measure to control inflation. Higher interest rates can make borrowing more expensive, which can slow economic growth and negatively impact the stock market. Therefore, the revised inflation forecast could potentially have a negative impact on the SPY ETF.
