CNN —The Federal Reserve’s favored inflation gauge just moved in the wrong direction. The Personal Consumption Expenditures price index rose 2.3% in October from the year before, accelerating from the 2.1% pace notched in September, according to Commerce Department data released Wednesday. On a monthly basis, prices rose 0.2%, matching the gain seen in September. Inflation within the services sector drove much of the monthly increase, as those prices rose 0.4% from September, while goods prices ticked up by 0.1%. Wednesday’s inflation readings were exactly what economists had anticipated: Consensus estimates called for a 0.2% monthly increase and for the annual rate to climb to 2.3%, according to FactSet.

At a time when most Federal Reserve officials see lower interest rates head, a key report on Wednesday is expected to show inflation drifting further away from target. The Commerce Department will release the October look at its personal consumption expenditures price index, the Fed's primary yardstick to measure the pace of price increases. "Recent data show progress on inflation has slowed," Brett Ryan, senior U.S. economist at Deutsche Bank, said in a note. "Recent wage data shows gains remain elevated and suggests core inflation is unlikely to cool near the Fed's 2% target," BlackRock experts said Monday in their weekly market note. "Markets have been pricing out Fed rate cuts — and moving closer to our view — as it becomes clearer that inflation pressures could prove persistent."

☆ Trump's proposed tariff increases would boost inflation by nearly 1%, Goldman Sachs estimates
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-26 | by ( Jesse Pound | In Jesse-Pound | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

The latest tariff proposal from President-elect Donald Trump would likely put upward pressure on inflation in the United States, according to Goldman Sachs. The core PCE, which strips out food and energy prices, is the preferred inflation reading of the Federal Reserve. A tariff-linked increase in core PCE could scramble the calculations around Fed rate cuts. To be sure, it remains to be seen whether the tariffs will actually be implemented at the levels Trump proposed — or what exceptions might be made. Some of Trump's advisors and supporters have characterized the tariffs he proposed during the campaign as a bargaining position rather than a set policy.

Oil prices retreated on Monday following 6% gains last week, but remained near two-week highs as geopolitical tensions grew between Western powers and major oil producers Russia and Iran, raising risks of supply disruption. "Oil prices are starting the new week with some slight cool-off as market participants await more cues from geopolitical developments and the Fed's policy outlook to set the tone," said Yeap Jun Rong, market strategist at IG. "Tensions between Ukraine and Russia have edged up a notch lately, leading to some pricing for the risks of a wider escalation potentially impacting oil supplies." Enforced sanctions could sideline about 1 million barrels per day of Iran's oil exports, about 1% of global oil supply, he said. Investors were also focused on rising crude oil demand at China and India, the world's top and third-largest importers, respectively.

U.S. Treasury yields were lower on Monday as investors weighed President-elect Donald Trump's Treasury secretary pick and eyed a key inflation reading due later in the week. Trump's choice of hedge fund executive Scott Bessent as Treasury secretary has calmed investors' nerves about the future of the U.S. economy. Bessent, the founder of Key Square Group, is expected to back the incoming president's economic goals including gradual tariffs and pro-business policies. However, as an old Wall Street hand and a fiscal conservative, investors believe Bessent will prioritize stability in the U.S. economy and markets. Also in focus this week are some key data points due ahead of a shortened trading week.

Spot gold fell 1.52% to $2,671.29 per ounce as of 0501 GMT, while U.S. gold futures shed 1.5% to $2,672.90. Gold's five-day rally pauses due to some profit-taking and Trump's pick of Scott Bessent as U.S. Treasury Secretary, hinting at tempered use of tariffs and easing U.S.-China trade uncertainty, said IG market strategist Yeap Jun Rong. Less dovish U.S. policy signals and potential inflation surprises could support a December rate hold, slowing rate cut prospects can be seen weighing on gold prices, Rong said.
