US Inflation Rate

We are talking about USA inflation and what will happen.
Again I will say that it appears the Fed is going to keep interest rates up too high too long and the USA will have a very hard landing.

Trump really has nothing to do with this. And i don't really want to talk about who the next incumbent is. It is about what we should be doing in investment terms now. I didn't bring him up.
Even if Trump is the saviour, he won't be there till the end of the year.

Fully agree, and yes with interest rates
About "I didn't bring him up." Aka Trump...
I had to scroll back and was ready to apologize..but no, it is definitively in the post I replied to .
Show you how polarising he is if he inserts himself in your own writing wo you being aware.😉
He is no silver bullet, and too old now but letting the existing team in control is a sure catastrophic collapse..all part of the plan..and hyperinflation in the US is part of the plan..
So do we fight the plan?
Better even, can we fight the plan and win?
And if you agree with me that we can not, how do we handle that for our selfish own self interest ?
 
If USA interest rates cuts take place on April then it will be averted and there will be a soft landing.

I do think some of the board are wanting a hard landing for various reasons but only some.

I am not doing anything yet except reducing risk. If a hard landing looks like happening then bonds will be good as they will be revalued as interest rates drop back to near 0.
 
This can't be good for Biden's re election chances.
I imagine trump will be showing as many ads as possible with this chart as its centrepiece.

actually it would be January 2025 , January 6 ( or some day close ) , if there is a change of president ( there other minor candidates )
BUT depending on who is selected ( apart from the incumbent ) the market might move savagely in late November

paving the way for a bleak December ( market-wise ) or a big Santa rally

i suspect the Fed to jawbone for as long and hard as it can

hmmm well Berkshire didn't seem to need the cash ( it was sitting on more than $100 billion last i saw )

is there a BIG buy in the headlights after all Berkshire does do BIG complicated deals for selected distressed companies

it might be more interesting to see where Berkshire parks the cash ( apart from the short-term money market )
 
US Core Inflation data is due out on Wednesday (NY time).
This will have a signifcant impact on market attitudes.
the question is , will it be manipulated like so much of the rest of the US data is, or will it be a relatively accurate picture of what is happening in US prices?
Now that a change in administration is about to be reset, what will the existing administration mandarins do to make life difficult for the incoming administration?
This also applies to the next round of BLS employment data, Jolts anf continuing unemployment data.

the recent official data has been so unreliable i was surprised Gerald Ford wasn't elected as President , but here we are in a global crisis that only individuals imagine to be real

where to after February 2025 ( give them time to seat the new faces on the deck-chairs ) wait and see if Ron Paul is placed anywhere effective ( apparently Elon Musk is keen for Dr. Ron to introduce some changes )

ALSO many of the changes made after January will take more than five years to gain traction so watch for signs of DJT's successor ( it officially can't be Musk , the President is supposed to be a US-born citizen , and Elon is honest about his birthright )

has Trump ( and appointees ) have the courage to produce the REAL data ( not surveys , estimates and polls ) , if so the US may be worthy of investment cash

remember Trump might have won , but the Republicans have a 'swamp-creature ' infestation issue as well ( not just the bureaucracy )
