The Market Is Pushing Asset Prices After Inflation Report — But Should It Be?
To investors, This morning CPI was reported right in-line with market expectations at 2.9% year-over-year. The big surprise came from core CPI, which was estimated to be at 3.3% and instead came in at 3.2%. Adam Kobeissi and his team pointed out that immediately S&P 500 futures surge over +85 points when the report hit. This response is interesting because it highlights the complexity of the situation we find ourselves in. On one hand, the market is looking for any sign of relief from the higher inflation levels. Optimism shows up for a simple 0.1% beat on expectations. On the other hand, CPI is nearly 50% higher than the Fed’s target and it has been increasing in recent months. Add in the fact that critics believe Trump’s policies could be inflationary and you can clearly see one future scenario involving a return of higher inflation. Asset prices aren’t waiting around to see what happens though. On top of the S&P 500 futures surging, bitcoin also jumped to nearly $99,000 after the CPI report. Plenty of people continue to yell and scream about a potential market crash right around the corner, but those voices are becoming fewer in number. Even Blackrock’s Larry Fink came out this morning to say the US economy is in very good shape. Just because the economy is in good shape doesn’t mean that risk is gone. Goldman Sachs sent out this chart. Mike Zaccardi highlights “the equity market is currently near its most concentrated level in 100 years.” And Heritage’s EJ Antoni tweeted:
So the situation is not as straightforward as everyone wants to think. The economy is strong, but the first weeks of 2025 are showing signs of problems ahead. Trump is ready to come into office with his economic policies and people are excited — the big question remains though: What will these policies do to inflation that seems to be stuck around 3%? The answer to that question is going to determine much of the market’s future in coming months. Hope you all have a great day. I’ll talk to everyone tomorrow. - Anthony Pompliano Founder & CEO, Professional Capital Management 🚨 READER NOTE: I am hosting Bitcoin Investor Week in NYC from February 24-28th.
