S&P 500

Wall Street is coming off yet another brutal week for equities. The Nasdaq Composite sank deeper into correction territory last week, while the small-cap Russell 2000 neared a bear market, or 20% off from its high. The S&P 500 briefly dipped into a correction as well, before snapping back above that level.

Those moves come as investors have struggled to keep pace with President Donald Trump’s fast-changing tariff policies, on top of growing signs of economic weakness, that have put markets in a tailspin. The uncertainty has many wondering whether the stock market correction could turn into a bear market.

“If you look at the companies that were talking at big conferences in March, a lot of things are slowing. And so, I think this is more than a growth scare already. This is actually like a growth slowdown. And so the question is, will we get negative guidance in April?” Adam Parker, CEO of Trivariate Research, told CNBC’s “Closing Bell” on Friday.

“Until then, I think we have to play a little bit more defense than offense,” Parker added. “Because I don’t think the fundamentals are likely to ‘V-shape’ recover like they have in previous cycles.”

Wall Street is headed for a big markets week. The Federal Reserve is widely expected to hold interest rates steady at the conclusion of its latest policy meeting Wednesday. However, Chair Jerome Powell’s post-meeting comments will be monitored closely for any changes in tone, after Powell repeated earlier this year the central bank is in “no hurry” to lower interest rates.

Investors will be parsing through the upcoming economic data for any signs of an economic slowdown. The U.S. retail sales report set to release Monday will give insight into the state of the consumer. Economists polled by Dow Jones expect retail sales to have increased 0.6% in February.
