My point is bulls are celebrating CPI weakness but a falling dollar pushes up commodity prices, hard goods like housing, etc which pushes up CPI in the future.
In the 70s, inflation dropped from 7-8% to 3% before spiking up even higher. As dollar drops here, we could be setting up for a repeat performance. This is what the Fed is looking at and why they will hold rates high despite the market thinking they know better.
Dollar itself is a harder nut to crack. JPY should strengthen, China is a wildcard and Europe is a disaster so the euro and pound should drop. South America is ahead of us and has been fighting inflation for a while so their hiking cycle is about finished.
