Investor attention today is focused on the June U.S. CPI report, due at 1:30 PM GMT. Goldman Sachs forecasts suggest that the report may be interpreted as moderately dovish. The most important inflation component, housing costs, continues to slow, while the automotive sector has exerted mild disinflationary pressure. Oil prices have also fallen sharply from their recent peaks.
- Only selected services, such as airfares and hotels, continue to show notable price pressure, but not enough to change the broader picture. Goldman Sachs believes that some of the recent favorable inflation data may have reflected seasonal effects, meaning that a single report would not yet confirm a lasting return of inflation to the Fed’s target.
- GS expects headline CPI to rise by 3.8% year-over-year and core CPI by 2.8%. On the other hand, oil prices have rebounded by more than 20% from their recent low, which could lead investors to view even a favorable CPI report as partly outdated.
