U.S. STOCK FUTURES LITTLE CHANGED AFTER MOSTLY IN-LINE CPI
The main U.S. equity index futures are little changed, after the release of the latest data on U.S. consumer prices. E-mini S&P 500 futures EScv1 are up around 0.1% vs roughly flat just before the numbers came out.
The July headline CPI reading on a month-over-month basis was in-line with the estimate. The year-over-year print was cooler than expected. Both the month-over-month and year-over-year core prints were in-line with the Reuters Poll numbers:
According to the CME's FedWatch Tool, the probability that the FOMC cuts rates 50 basis points at its September 17-18 policy meeting now stands at 44% from 51% just before the data came out. There is now around a 56% chance the Fed cuts by 25 basis points vs around 49% just before the numbers were released.
In any event, looking further out into 2024, the bias in December is for rates to be in the 4.25%-4.50% area vs the current target rate of 5.25%-5.50%.
The U.S. 10-Year Treasury yield US10YT=RR is now around 3.85% vs 3.83% just before the data was released. The yield ended at 3.85% on Wednesday.
A majority of S&P 500 sector SPDR ETFs are higher ahead of the open. Tech XLK.P, up around 0.6%, is posting the biggest rise.
The KBW regional banking ETF KRE.P is up around 0.9%.
Regarding the data, Gennadiy Goldberg, head of U.S. rates strategy at TD Securities in New York, said:
"The one thing that was surprising here was rent accelerating. I think that's the reason for the market's somewhat disappointed reaction, even though the print actually came in on the weaker side of consensus."
Goldberg added “I think this really checks the box for the Fed to go in September. And of course, the big question for the market is going to be 25 or 50, and I suspect that's going to be determined over the next couple of weeks.”
