CPI
This morning’s CPI report came in softer than expected. MoM was most crucial. Headline MoM was flat, meaning no increase from June. Core MoM 0.3% v 0.5% exp. Headline YoY down from 40-year high of 9.1% in June to 8.5%, below the 8.7% expected. Even Core YoY was below exp at 5.9% v 6.1%. The initial broad market reaction is “RISK ON”. A softer than expected number has market participants thinking that the Federal Reserve may take their foot off the pedal (in terms of raising rates).
