January 13, 2026 06:52Download Full Report Here: https://media.marketnews.com/USCPI_Prev_Jan20261_93e1324d4f.pdf EXECUTIVE SUMMARY * Consumer price inflation is set to pick up on a sequential basis in December from the suspiciously weak prior price prints, with MNI's collection of analyst previews suggesting a rise to 0.35% M/M core / 0.37% headline after average monthly increases of 0.08% and 0.10% respectively over November and October. * However, distortions mean that an inflation acceleration in December shouldn't be taken at face value. * Few analysts took the shutdown-delayed October/November report either literally or seriously, given the unusual data collection period (incorporating late November holiday discounting in key goods categories) and "carry-forward imputation" due to the cancellation of the October survey. * One implication is that inflation in several categories is seen accelerating in December in a reflection of a more typical survey period: this includes multiple goods categories (e.g. apparel, recreational goods), as well as travel-related services (e.g. lodging away from home, airfares). * One category that isn't expected to see such dramatic "payback" is housing, however a reversion to previous rates of inflation is broadly expected after the BLS assumed inflation in October to be zero. * All of the above means that reading the details of the report will be even more critical than usual in making any interpretation of the aggregate indices, and any extreme results are likely to be downplayed. * This will be the last major data report ahead of the Fed's end-January meeting, but is very unlikely to sway the FOMC from holding rates as is heavily priced (only about 1bp of cuts implied by futures). * Even if the data are more robust this time, the continued distortions in the December report will probably keep the Committee waiting for the next two CPI reports available by the following meeting on March 17-18 to get a better sense of underlying pressures. * Indeed some FOMC members have identified the turn-of-the-year price-setting by firms as a key determinant of whether tariff-related inflation is set to be meaningfully passed through.
January 12, 2026 08:12Download Report Here: https://media.marketnews.com/MNIUSEARNINGS_120126_58d6867bbc.pdf Executive Summary: * 4.3% of the index are set to report in the coming week, quieter than the usual opening week of the season. Most Magnificent Seven constituents aren't due until toward the end of January. * Mag Seven earnings should continue to point to a two-speed stock market, with BofA forecasting 20% EPS growth in Q4 for the tech sector. The drive is seen propping up expected growth of 9% for the index, or just 1% ex-tech sector. This quarter's earnings season comes as headline indices have hit new alltime highs, again adding pressure to P/E ratios. * Early earnings from big banks will be watched carefully for signals on the strength of the consumer this year, as well as any fallout from Trump's intended cap on credit card rates - a move that would pressure many bank's card programmes into unprofitability.

January 09, 2026 09:14Download Full Report Here: https://media.marketnews.com/US_macro_weekly_260109_b786cdfe57.pdf EXECUTIVE SUMMARY * Jobs growth may have disappointed in December's Employment Situation report, but the drop in the unemployment rate saw near-term rate FOMC cut prospects trimmed further (January cut = no chance) after hawkish shifts throughout the week. * A next Fed cut is still fully priced for June, only just at 25.5bp, the first meeting under a new Chair. * Most labor market data remains concerning but activity is still robust, not least because recent productivity growth was shown this week to be stronger than expected. Additionally while manufacturing activity remains moribund, December's ISM Services report was meaningfully stronger than expected, with the headline PMI index surprisingly jumping to a 14-month high. * A 5+% real GDP handle in Q4 as implied by the Atlanta Fed tracker may be misleadingly high due to distorted October trade data, but domestic final demand looks to have been roughly as strong at the end of the year as it was through its resilient middle. * The top-tier data schedule carries on Tuesday with the December CPI report amid a broader set of inflation prints, including delayed October and November PPI data (Wednesday) and Import/Export Prices for November (Thursday). * Also due to garner attention is the "advance" retail sales report which is likewise on the slightly stale side, being only for November (alternative measures of retail activity have signalled a solid end-of-year). And we should also mention a possible Supreme Court ruling on Wednesday on the legality of the White House's IEEPA tariffs. * Consumer price inflation is set to pick up on a sequential basis from November's suspiciously weak price prints, with early consensus pointing to 0.3 to 0.4% M/M rises in both headline and core CPI after an average increase of 0.1% M/M over November and October. * However, continued data distortions including "payback" effects mean that an inflation acceleration in December shouldn't be taken at face value (more in our week-ahead section) and is unlikely to settle any debates within the FOMC on the outlook for price pressures.
