US industrial production declined in March as manufacturing softened and utility output decreased in the wake of the Iran war. The 0.5% drop in production at factories, mines and utilities followed an upwardly revised 0.7% surge a month earlier, Federal Reserve data showed Thursday. Economists projected a 0.1% advance, according to the Bloomberg survey median. Manufacturing output , which accounts for three-fourths of total industrial production, slipped 0.1% after a stronger advance a month earlier than initially reported. Output at utilities decreased 2.3%, while mining also fell. Before the war in the Middle East, seeds of a manufacturing recovery were starting to take root amid less trade policy uncertainty and solid capital investment in equipment. However, business optimism is showing signs of souring due to higher energy and materials costs that risk limiting factory orders if the conflict persists.

Among industry groups, motor vehicles and parts production decreased, along with primary metals and furniture. Excluding autos, factory output edged up 0.1%, marking the third straight monthly advance.

With less than 2 weeks remaining until the next European Central Bank meeting, the bloc's policymakers appear undecided on the future of interest rates. Financial markets are currently pricing in a hold at the April 29-30 meeting, followed by a hike in June, according to LSEG data. The majority of traders expect the ECB's key interest rate to reach at least 2.5% by the end of the year – a hike of 50 basis points or more from current levels. Speaking to CNBC at the IMF's Spring Meeting in Washington, DC, on Wednesday, Joachim Nagel, president of Germany's Bundesbank, said oil price volatility had left the ECB "between our baseline and our adverse scenario." "The whole situation is very opaque, very cloudy, and in two weeks, we have to decide what is coming next," he said, adding that "data is coming in on a daily basis in the form of news." Questions around the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz are at the center of the uncertainty, Nagel noted, labeling the critical waterway "the heel of the world economic system." "If there is more uncertainty coming, that is then also influencing the decision we have to take when we come together in two weeks," he said. "[A] meeting-to-meeting approach is the right way to do it, and it was the way we did it in the past. It's becoming even more important in this very complicated day." watch now VIDEO 11:33 11:33 Bundesbank's Nagel: Iran war impact still significant for euro zone Squawk Box Europe Nagel hinted policymakers were still contemplating the interest rate trajectory. "It is so important to really wait until we have all the information that is available on the day when we have to take the decision," he said. "And so this meeting-to-meeting approach is the best way to do or to conduct monetary policy." Nagel said inflation was expected to hover around the central bank's 2% target, but cautioned that lingering uncertainty could force an ECB reaction if prices rise more than expected. "We have to keep the optionalities in the w...

Shares of Hamilton Lane could be due for a turnaround as fears over risks tied to private credit and artificial intelligence disruption prove "overblown," according to JPMorgan. The investment bank upgraded Hamilton Lane to overweight from neutral. It maintained its $166 price target on shares, suggesting nearly 58% upside from Wednesday's close. "Although we are not sufficiently erudite on the AI subject to confirm or dispel broad market fears as warranted or not, we do believe that the recent price action, which has seen North American alternative asset managers trade off 17% on average, may be overblown," JPMorgan analyst Kenneth Worthington said Thursday in a note to clients. Hamilton Lane shares have plunged nearly 22% in 2026 as concerns over asset managers' exposure to a potential private credit crisis have swirled. In addition, investors have sold the stock as some AI-powered financial planning tools appear poised to take some business away from asset managers. HLNE YTD mountain The asset management stock is down nearly 22% in 2026. However, Hamilton Lane has limited exposure to private credit and strong wealth flows, so recent concerns shouldn't deter investors from buying the stock, according to JPMorgan. The recent selloff in Hamilton Lane is "unwarranted given HLNE's more limited exposure to the private credit market, recent wealth flows showing sustained strength through January (latest data), and the story specific benefit of HLNE's largest individual drawdown series…due to commence booking inflows in the near term," Worthington wrote. The asset management stock also is poised to benefit from its stable fee-based business model, according to the analyst. "Unlike alternative asset managers, HLNE generates the vast majority of its earnings from management fees, which are more stable than incentive fee earnings," Worthington wrote. The analyst added that Hamilton Lane has "sales growth above that of the broader peer set in a highly valued asset." JPMorgan...
