🚨 THE FED IS ALMOST CERTAIN TO RAISE INTEREST RATES!
U.S. inflation data just released continued to come in higher than market expectations.
• CPI: Up 0.4% month over month (MoM).
• Core CPI: Up 0.3% month over month (MoM).
Last week, U.S. employment data also came in better than forecast. This suggests inflation is becoming the Fed’s biggest concern.
As a result, the possibility of a Fed rate hike is now on the table. The remaining question is whether the increase will be 25 or 50 basis points (bps).
