The central bank's current chief, Jerome Powell, is yet to defeat his mythical beast — and Wall Street is getting worried. Powell warned on Wednesday that the Fed's fight against inflation isn't over after annualized price growth accelerated to 3.2% in February. AdvertisementRaising the alarmBank of America analysts have suggested that stubborn inflation could mean the Fed doesn't start cutting rates until March next year. It's no wonder, then, that investors are waiting impatiently for the Fed to cut rates. Fundstrat's famously bullish boss, Tom Lee, proclaimed this week that it's dropping "like a rock" and the first rate cut is still likely to be in June.

"Solvay is an essential chemical company that holds the number one position across all of its markets" Einhorn said. "While all of these are thought of as commodity businesses, they are higher margin and much more stable than most commodity chemical businesses." "All told, Solvay is a commodity chemical company with relatively high and stable margin, a higher return on capital." "At 3.7 times targeted 2028 earnings per share with almost a double-digit dividend yield, it seems too cheap," Einhorn added.

Einhorn had stopped building new stock positions at one point in the fourth quarter due to worries about intensifying geopolitical risks.

REUTERS/Staff Acquire Licensing RightsLONDON, Nov 27 (Reuters Breakingviews) - Schaeffler’s (SHA_p.DE) token bump for Vitesco Technologies (VTSCn.DE) may not ensure a smooth ride. The 3.4 billion euro German industrial group raised its tender price for shares in auto parts group Vitesco by 3% to 94 euros. On that basis the 94 euros tender price is only a 7% premium above fair value. Assuming enough shareholders now tender, the final merger price for any remaining shares will be set by a third-party valuer. Yet Vitesco’s board, backed by three banks including JPMorgan (JPM.N) and Lazard (LAZ.N), have now published fairness opinions saying the company is worth more than 94 euros.

David Einhorn expects stubborn inflation and the Fed to only cut interest rates next year. If inflation sees a resurgence and rates go higher, that could threaten the current bull market, he says. They may be celebrating too soon, hedge fund boss David Einhorn warned in his quarterly letter to investors this week. He viewed the move as bullish for stocks and likely to fuel inflation at the time. "If we were 'bearish' until March and 'neutral' through June, we would now characterizeourselves as 'worried,'" the veteran investor said.
