BREAKING: Inflation Shoots Higher!

In partnership with

šŸŽˆ Inflation Update:

Headline Inflation rose to 2.6%, up from 2.4% last month, while core inflation remained steady at 3.3%.
The Federal Reserveā€™s interest rate cut in September correlated with rising inflation, sparking concerns over inflationā€™s trajectory.

Upcoming Federal Reserve Meeting - December 18th:

Market odds for another interest rate cut in December have increased from 60.3% to 82.3% following this inflation report.

A further cut would bring the Fed funds rate down to 4.5% from the previous 5.5% peak.

Rate Cut Expectations Extend to January:

The January 29th Fed meeting now has a 26.5% probability of a rate cut, up from 18.7%, driven by market speculation.

Challenges in Achieving the 2% Inflation Target:

The Federal Reserveā€™s 2% target remains elusive. Recent rate cuts could delay progress, with inflation likely reaccelerating more visibly by late 2025 and peaking in 2026.

Fedā€™s Potential Actions Against Deflation:

Fed Chair Jerome Powell has indicated an aversion to deflation. Should inflation fall below 2%, the Fed may respond by further rate cuts and accelerated money printing.

Historical Context on Interest Rates and Inflation:

Historically, the Fed has raised rates more sharply during inflation spikes to regain control. Current rates may not be high enough or sustained long enough to curb inflation effectively. Therefore, I am still in favour of owning assets rather than cash which can be inflated away.
