đź’¨ Up In Smoke

March inflation preview, why cannabis stocks are going up in smoke and more

Happy Tuesday Zingernation! Alright, I’ve got a new pitch: Keeping Up With The Kardashians but instead of the Kardashians it’s Fed officials. Maybe there’d be a little bit less style and plastic surgery, but there should be just as much drama.

It’s been virtually impossible to decipher where the Fed stands throughout the last couple of weeks, with some members saying the central bank may not be able to cut rates at all this year, while others, like Powell and Bullard, appear to still be married to the idea of three cuts by EOY. Let’s see if their marriage to the three rate cuts lasts longer than the 72 days Kim K was married to former NBA player Kris Humphries.

MARKET SNAPSHOT

Yesterday: Was a relatively flat and boring day, but at the end of it, most major indices closed in the green. So all things considered, I’ll take that.

On Our Radar: Not a lot planned today in terms of economic data or earnings, but tomorrow will be a huge morning with March’s CPI out before the open. The inflation metric is expected to dip slightly to .3% for March compared to .4% in February.

Basically: This week’s market spotlight is squarely fixed on the eagerly awaited Consumer Price Index (CPI) report for March, scheduled for release on Wednesday at 8:30 a.m. EST. Following two consecutive months of higher-than-expected inflation reports, which have tempered market expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts in 2024, investors are on edge, anxiously awaiting the latest inflation figures.

So: Presently, market-implied probabilities indicate an almost equal likelihood of either a rate cut or a hold in June, with the March inflation data potentially playing a pivotal role in tipping the scales one way or the other.

Why It Matters: Bill Adams, economist at Comerica Bank, foresees “another month of hot inflation,” as gasoline prices rose again and “U.S. crude production leveled off near a record high.”

Is Inflation Back: The CPI index is expected to reveal significant price spikes in certain food items, particularly eggs and chicken, influenced by the avian flu outbreak.
