CPI Thoughts
\n- July CPI is expected to ease to 3.4% from a year earlier, with core inflation forecast near 2.5%.
\n- The probability of a September Fed rate increase has moved back toward 48% as oil rebounded and several policymakers continued to emphasize inflation risks.
\n- A soft reading would support bonds, technology and precious metals. A hot reading would revive stagflation concerns by combining weaker hiring with renewed price pressure.

\n

Tariffs Return Under New Authority
\n- New tariffs of 10% to 12.5% cover imports from 60 trading partners.
\n- The administration shifted to Section 301 after losing its emergency-powers case.
\n- Major partners affected include China, Europe, India, Japan, Canada, and Mexico.
\n- New lawsuits argue the administration is again stretching trade law too far.
\n- 25 States are suing on this ....
