A 10% tariff on all imports. Up to 60% on imports from China. A Donald Trump win in November could mean lower US growth, rebounding inflation and higher rates. But his other isolationist policies would have an even bigger impact on global GDP growth rb.gy/3szz6s

“.. new data on rent inflation released this week raise the possibility that the disinflationary process won’t stop there, with a period of below-target inflation a growing risk.” - @CapEconUS #CPI

About that "last mile is the hardest" nonsense. Remember rent of shelter accounts for 43% of the core #CPI basket. So if it does fall from 6.2% in Dec to -1% that would subtract 3.1% points, leaving core CPI Inflation at sub-1% by end-2024. Jan rate cut maybe?

We're Team #PCE rather than #CPI, but there's a possible upward revision to the portfolio management component coming that could add 0.14% to the core PCE inflation rate.

The collapse in the NY Fed manufacturing index to -43.7 in Jan is going to attract a lot of attention from the perma bears, but we'd caution it's more likely noise rather than signal.

“The surge in Chapter 11 business bankruptcy filings .. is not as bad as it looks, as many of them related to the WeWork failure. Excluding those, bankruptcies trended lower at the end of 2023 and, with corporate bond yields falling .. the worst may already be behind us.” @CapEconUS
