November 9, 2022 Headlines

It’s another quiet start for financial markets ahead of tomorrow’s October CPI report. Treasury yields are up 1-2 basis points, and S&P 500 futures are down 0.5% currently (8:51am ET). Core CPI is expected to have moderated to a still-high 0.5% m/m rate last month, likely helped by a decline in used auto prices according to some economists. Actual results that are at or below expectations would likely lead to markets more firmly pricing for a 50 basis point rate hike at the December meeting (as opposed to another 75 bp hike), but there will still be another CPI report and monthly jobs report released before the December 14 FOMC meeting. In a stark reversal from the prior year, a Bloomberg article highlights an overabundance of inventory by U.S. retailers heading into the holiday shopping season this year. Fearful of supply-chain shortages, major retailers ordered greater quantities earlier than usual, but waning consumer demand and poor forecasting is leaving these companies with a glut of goods and forced discounting of prices.
