The first business surveys since the Iran war started reveal the US economy is heading toward stagflation, with inflation rising and growth slowing. The S&P Global Flash U.S. Composite PMI fell to 51.4 in March, signaling slower expansion, while input costs rose sharply due to higher energy prices. Employment in the private sector declined, and supply chain pressures increased. Markets now expect limited Federal Reserve rate cuts amid rising inflation risks and a 35% chance of recession by the end of 2026.
