This week, the Bureau of Labor Statistics announced the Consumer Price Index (CPI) was higher in January than analysts had been predicting. The markets didn’t like the news, much like consumers. The question remains: how much longer will inflation be a problem? If higher interest rates can’t do it alone, what must happen in the economy? And from what Washington has been telling us, the economy has been chugging along nicely.
In this week’s Trading Perspectives, Sam and John discuss the recent inflation and their thoughts on where prices are headed over the next twelve months.
