Inflation is looking more benign. This month’s core PCE deflator rose 0.1% month-on-month, below the 0.17% MoM threshold that if repeated over 12 months would generate the targeted 2% year-on-year inflation. It is instead going to be jobs data that determines the speed and scale of rate cuts over the coming months.  Our team is watching this week: if we get the unemployment rate rising back to 4.3% and a sub 75,000 payrolls print, expect calls for a second 50bp rate cut to increase markedly.
