Version 1.15 (2024-02-13 16:23:55.197000)

updates: The latest reading of 3.1% inflation is still well above the Federal Reserve's 2% target level. Core inflation remained unchanged at 3.9%. The mixed data released could reinforce the caution of Fed officials, who have said they're pleased with the progress in sharply reducing inflation but want to see further evidence before feeling confident that it's sustainably headed back to their 2% target. The CPI data suggests that any idea of a March rate cut should be put to bed, and expectations of a large number of rate cuts should be retired. The figures reduce the chances of Fed officials lowering interest rates soon, and any additional increase in inflation might lead to talks of resuming rate hikes. The Fed's next policy meeting is scheduled for March 19-20.

updates: Includes new information on food and housing prices driving US inflation in December

Version 0.69 (2024-01-11 14:18:10.861000)

updates: US inflation rose in December, with consumer prices increasing by 0.3%. Annual inflation rate reached 3.4%. The increase was driven by rising shelter costs and higher food and energy prices. Despite the higher than expected inflation readings, futures traders still expect the Fed to start cutting interest rates in March. Fed officials have indicated that they could begin cutting rates this year if the inflation data continue to cooperate. However, there is a divide between the market and the Fed about the timing and extent of rate cuts in 2024. Markets expect six rate cuts this year, while Fed projections point to just three. Additionally, annual inflation in Germany and France rose in December, with Germany's CPI at 3.8% and France's CPI at 4.1%. Energy prices helped drive up the headline rate of inflation. Economists expect core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy costs, to continue to slow. The rise in inflation may dampen expectations of interest rate cuts by central banks.
