Portfolio Pulse from Piero Cingari
Despite a stronger-than-expected September CPI report, the market narrative of disinflation and potential interest rate cuts in November remains unchanged. The CPI rose by 2.4% year-over-year, slightly above expectations, while core inflation ticked up to 3.3%. The labor market saw a rise in jobless claims, attributed to temporary disruptions. Fed's Goolsbee downplayed the inflation uptick, emphasizing the broader trend of disinflation. Economists have mixed reactions, with some highlighting temporary factors affecting data. The S&P 500 index, tracked by SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY), traded flat.
