CPI Again

Wall Street experienced a correction on Friday with noticeable vigor (S&P500 -1.5%, NDX -1.6%). Employment statistics confirmed the robustness of the American job market, which heightened concerns about a more aggressive Federal Reserve and led to an increase in bond yields (T-Note at 4.76%). The rise in oil prices, following a new set of US sanctions on Russia, did not provide any support. This upward trend is continuing today (WTI up by 2.1% to $78.2 and Brent up by 1.9% to $81.3), contributing to fears of ongoing inflation. This week is particularly significant as the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) will be released next Wednesday. There’s an anticipated increase in the overall rate to +2.9% from +2.7%, while the core rate is expected to hover around +3.3%. The effects of these figures will be binary: a worse-than-expected result could pressure bond yields and stifle stock market growth, while a better result could provide some relief. This week can be seen as split into two segme...

Bonds are the key

The bond sell-off seems to be moderating slightly (Bund 2.52% T-Note 4.66%), but yields are still too high for stocks to advance. Yesterday, they just flattened, distracted and worried about US employment data to be released tomorrow, which is likely to be stronger than desired, which would push the Fed away from cutting rates... which would favor bond yields not giving in. That is the main obstacle. However, surprisingly, the ADP Private Employment Survey came out somewhat weak yesterday (122k vs 140k expected vs 146k previous). But tomorrow's employment figures (2:30 PM) are the decisive ones, by official figures. Payrolls or Non-Farm Payroll Creation of only 160k vs 227k previous, Private Employment 135k vs 194k, Unemployment Rate repeating at 4.2% and Wages also repeating at +4.0% are expected. These figures, rather weak, would be good for stocks to stabilize and try to rebound a bit because yields would relax somewhat. But it is advisable not to trust because it would be stran...
