  1. This is not financial advice and I am not a financial advisor, but my inflation expectations are more in line with those of the dissenters.

    People see the gas/diesel price shocks. Most people aren't yet really seeing the shipping price shocks. The goods price shock hasn't hit yet, but it absolutely will; if you look you can see it coming.

    As for food, well, people are seeing a little foods price shock but it's mostly transportation impacts passed along so relatively low-key so far for most, but if fertiliser supplies don't get sorted - China's helping with that in eastern Asia, sharing from their considerable reserves stockpile - the hard impacts will be four to six months off.

  2. Oh, also of interest: the headlines note that there were the most dissenters on this rates decision since 1992. Since people were looking for a rate cut the implication is that the dissenters wanted one.

    That is NOT CORRECT.

    There were four dissents.

    _One_ wanted an immediate rate cut, as context around the headlines would imply.

    The other three wanted the forward-looking possible-rate-cut-languge _removed_. They wanted no rate cut now, and they wanted the suggestion of a rate cut at the next meeting _taken out_, meaning they expect higher inflation.

    This is the opposite of the contextual headline implication and one should take it onboard for one's inflation expectations accordingly.

    #WhiteHouse is enraged as Herr #Drumpf economic advisors call for #economists behind the study to be “disciplined.”

    The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office previously published similar findings in an economic forecast that estimated U.S. businesses absorb 30% of the cost of tariffs by reducing profit margins with remaining 70% passed onto consumers as higher overall prices

  9. Every conservative accusation is a confession: USA Fed governor Lisa Cook has been found innocent of mortgage fraud because she did NOT claim a second home as a primary residence, to save on interest and taxes. However Reuters reports that Bill Pulte, the guy who accused her and demanded her resignation, DID EXACTLY THAT. He is now being hit with back taxes. Oops. #uspol #FedReserve
