Fundamental Report: Yesterday, Labor Department released the latest inflationary report, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for June. The report revealed that inflation has declined to its lowest monthly increase since August 2021. The Consumer Price Index gained 0.2% last month double the increase of 0.1% in May. The vast majority of increases in consumer pricing was in the category of shelter which made up 70% of last month’s rise in the CPI. Increases were also evident in automobile insurance, and fuel which rose 1.0 %. However, there was a significant decrease in the cost of used trucks and cars. The rate of core inflation slowed from 5.3% in May to 4.8% last month. The importance of this decline is that the Federal Reserve believes that the core rate is the best predictor of inflationary trends. However, core inflation at 4.8% is still more than double the Fed’s target of 2% so even with last month’s decline the report indicates that both headline and core inflation continues to be troublesome as each month brings higher pricing for consumers across-the-board.  The inflation is declining considering that it is roughly half of last year’s inflation rate of 9.1%. However, inflation is still running at a level that is unlikely to soften the resolve of the Federal Reserve from raising rates two times this year. There continues to be an exceedingly high probability of an interest rate hike of ¼% by the Federal Reserve at the next FOMC meeting at the end of this month. According to the CME’s FedWatch tool, the probability of ¼% rate hike implemented on July 26 is 92.4%, down fractionally from yesterday’s forecast of 93%, and 90.5% one week ago. There is however only a 12.9% probability that the Fed will implement back-to-back rate hikes in both the July and September FOMC meeting.
