This week’s main release – the US December CPI – aligns with our forecast that core inflation is stabilizing around a 3%ar as we turn into the new year. But the Fed’s target inflation indicator – core PCE – is running close to a 2%ar, fueling optimism about early easing. We continue to see the Fed remaining on hold through March and expect it to signal both progress and patience at the January FOMC meeting.
