US CPI expectations

Discussion in 'Economics' started by ASusilovic, Dec 16, 2009.

  1. Prior Consensus Consensus Range

    CPI - M/M change 0.3 % 0.4 % 0.2 % to 0.6 %
    CPI less food & energy 0.2 % 0.1 % 0.1 % to 0.2 %
     
  2. Flat - no suprise.

    At least it's not negative.
     
  3. Fascinating counterpoint: Substantial inflation occurring in CPI will be the end of gold. Deflationary #s will be extraordinarily stimulating for gold price. Interesting dynamic, eh.
