Risk is to the downside. A lot of the upside is baked in

The real CPI stands for “Child Predators Inoffice” and that’s 110%

Big bounce in MOM.
Inflation isn't just going away boys.

Do you understand how CPI is calculated?
Below 6 was effectively impossible.

The MoM increase is indeed a little concerning. Hopefully, it's the case of being a non-linear fall similar to how it was a non-linear climb.

It’s concerning in the sense that it’s the wrong direction, but it was widely expected. Very few surprises in this print.

Used cars down big surprise. The methodology for CPI is questionable to say the least.

Powell moving back to .25% was a mistake. He should have kept it at .5 and tried to kill inflation. If rates continue to go up and inflation remains so hot it will have a devastating longer term impact on the economy. The market will shrug this off because it wants to go higher right now, but more rate hikes are going to be inevitable and inflation will remain through the first 1/2 of this year.

If we see another .5 MoM when the Feb numbers come out in mid-March and job numbers remain high, I don't see how we don't get another .5 at the March meeting.

This is starting to look more and more like Problem (create it) - Reaction (gauge it) - Solution (raise rates to crush the economy and especially the middle class)
1) Send direct payments into the economy via “stimulus” checks, PPP, etc. to ignite inflation.
2) Keep raising rates AND jawboning “higher for longer.”
3) Crush the economy, especially the middle class, to bring in a totalitarian NWO.
Seems like a perfect plan when you open your eyes and clearly see the evil we are up against.
The WAR is on us.
WE are the “carbon” (we exhale carbon and trees take it in to give us oxygen) “THEY” want to eliminate.
Just like they hate the sun that gives us the Vitamin D to keep our immune systems strong so “THEY” chemtrail over the sun.
Just like “THEY” want to be the saviors of ALL “disease” with “vaccines” that maim, injure and handicap us.
They are laughing at us. Gaslighting us at every turn. Most “articles” are now made just to piss us off.
Wake up folks.
It takes all of us doing our part(s).
Godspeed

NOW, “they” are all giddy (like Bill Gates gets when talking about vaccine poisons) about killing jobs “to bring down inflation” because raising rates is barely working.
Sure hope you guys get it.
Sure hope you guys see it.
Sure hope you guys treasure what REALLY matters (TIME is what matters. It contracts. Money expands).
Much love

Raising rates was working, the Fed just pulled a chicken shite move and backed out before the job was done. He was soft in his last conference and people immediately went nuts. Look where it got us. Also killing jobs was always the plan. Too many people got shifted to high paying jobs that created no value, disrupting the labor force for the last two years. We're still in the midst of this return to normalcy.

It’s way too early to judge the January rate hike. The print today had nothing to do with that decision.

We are a malleable species.
Seems like just yesterday when 3.0 would not cause much of a reaction.

The Manheim Used Vehicle index was up 2.5% in January and the CPI seasonally adjusted number was down 1.9%. That was a bit of a surprise, but, that same Manheim index was down 12.8% YoY vs CPI used prices being down 11.6% YoY, so is CPI just catching up?
My point is that these month to month numbers are more useful as a trend gauge than they are to make any significant extrapolations.
