Whirlpool India profit falls, seed oil worries and NY Fed inflation survey
Reuters reports Whirlpool India's quarterly profit slumped on costs; Bloomberg covers snack spending; CNBC says NY Fed inflation expectations are unchanged.
What happened
Reuters reports that Whirlpool India's quarterly profit slumped as raw-material costs rose. The headline points to input costs as the pressure on the company's earnings.
Bloomberg.com reports that concerns about seed oils are driving a $1 billion surge in US snack-food spending. Its description says the campaign against these oils is powerful despite a lack of scientific research supporting the concerns.
CNBC reports that the New York Fed found inflation expectations unchanged, still at elevated levels.
Context
Raw-material costs can weigh on manufacturers' margins, and surveys of inflation expectations are closely followed by economists and policymakers.
Why it matters
Input costs, shifting consumer spending and inflation expectations are all themes that can influence how markets assess corporate earnings and the economic backdrop.
