Thank you to Romaine Bostick, CFA and Katie Greifeld for a good conversation earlier this week. Despite recent encouraging data, we expect this last stretch of the race towards 2% inflation to be the toughest. Service inflation ran at 2.9% from 1997 to 2019. Inflation remained low during that period because goods inflation averaged .04% (effectively zero). For many reasons, this negligible goods inflation will be very difficult to achieve in the next decade. These reasons include climate change, fragmenting supply chains, and rising labor cost in parts of the world that used to export deflation. As a result, and as the bond market is finally reflecting, interest rates are likely to remain higher for longer.

Fed Chairman Jerome Powell and most of his colleagues are ready to cut rates but are still unsure about the starting point. Powell’s interview on CBS and his post FOMC meeting press conference show that he does not want to cut rates prematurely, and while he has practically ruled out any further hikes, he is keen to regain and retain the Fed’s credibility to fight inflation and act with integrity without bowing to political or financial markets pressure. Agent 525 is saying - No time to cut! #federalreserve #monetarypolicy #inflation #higherforlonger #useconomy #fiscalpolicy #ustreasuries #bonds #equities

Central bankers are just like us, prone to oops moments 😅 Jerome Powell, the head honcho at the Fed, recently spilled the beans on the TV show "60 Minutes". Kicking things off, Powell dropped a truth bomb about the Fed's missteps. Like calling inflation "transitory" (whoops) and wishing they'd tightened the financial reins sooner back in 2021. 🕰️ But Powell's chat wasn't just a mea culpa fest. He threw cold water on the hopes for rate cuts in March, sending US rates into a tizzy last week. The interview didn't pull any punches, asking Powell the tough questions about inflation, bank failures, the national debt, and how much politics plays into their decisions. 🥊 Some of the questions he had to answer: "Was the Fed too slow to recognize inflation in 2021?" "You seem confident in the banks, and yet Silicon Valley Bank happened, the second largest failure in US history. Did the Fed miss that?" "Is the national debt a danger to the economy, in your view?" "To what degree does politics determine your [rates] timing?" Seriously, give it a watch; it's a goldmine of insights straight from the most powerful central banker in the world. 📺 Powell also finished the interview with a bang. His final quote? "Integrity is priceless, and in the end, is all you have. We plan on keeping ours" (referring to the Fed).
