PERU: Congress Approves New Pension Fund Withdrawal

Reminder - July's CPI report (0830ET) is expected to show steady core inflationary pressures on a Y/Y basis but a continued deceleration in headline on a Y/Y basis. 

• Current BOC pricing sees roughly 30% implied probability of a September cut, with the first (and only remaining) full 25bp reduction seen only by about March next year. Today's won't be the deciding data in the September BOC decision - it's the first of two CPIs before Sep 17 (and of course we get another jobs report after July's poor numbers, and GDP before then too).
• MNI's median of sell-side analysts sees the average of the trim/median core measures at 3.075%, effectively reflecting an upside bias vs June's 3.05%.  See table below.
• However, headline CPI is seen remaining below 2% (1.8% with a slight downside unrounded bias, vs 1.86% prior, all Bloomberg consensus).  The M/M headline measure is seen at 0.3-0.4% M/M (vs 0.1% prior; not seasonally adjusted).

• Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR): 4.34% (-0.02), volume: $2.810T
• Broad General Collateral Rate (BGCR): 4.33% (-0.01), volume: $1.159T
• Tri-Party General Collateral Rate (TCR): 4.33% (-0.01), volume: $1.134T
