Inflation fears running rampant this morning. Investors are optimistic that a second Trump administration will favor business with tax cuts, deregulation, and tariffs, expected to boost economic growth, corporate profits, and inflation. Inflation fears driven by his tariff comments. The equity markets love it, the bond market is rebelling, they are two different markets each seeing it differently. Now what will the Fed do?
Inflation fears have been dominant prior to the election, now the concern is expanding; puts the Fed in a tight spot. The Fed may have to turn more hawkish to confront inflation if in fact it does increase as is presently expected. Trump’s return to the White House could refocus the Federal Reserve on fighting inflation. The FOMC meeting just getting underway, the members have a lot to think about; tomorrow Powell’s press conference, always critical, will be even more interesting.
