Good MorningThe June reading of the CPI index came in hotter than expected and the market seems not to care. The index rose 0.7% at the core or 0.2% hotter than expected for a 5.0% year-over-year gain. Even worse, the pace of inflation is accelerating and may Force the Fed’s hand later this year. At 5.0%, inflation is running well above the FOMC's 2% target rate and more than warrants and interest rate hike.
Friday will be another important day for the market. Investors will be eager to see if the indexes can build on Thursday's gains. The S&P 500 jumped about 0.75% to set a new all-time high on Thursday but closed well off the high of the session. If the market fails to follow through on a new high it could signal a period of sideways or downward trading over the summer.
