They both influence each other, yes. But GDP is largely a measure of consumer spending in the present, whereas stock markets are more forward-looking. Consumers, for the most part, respond to prices in the present. Savvy consumers have been stocking up in advance of anticipated price increases, and the less-savvy aren't really changing their spending yet because of stock buffers etc. |
