☆ Exxon accurately predicted global warming from 1970s but still cast doubt on climate science, new report finds
▼ + stars: | 2023-01-12 | by ( Laura Paddison | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +7 min

CNN —ExxonMobil’s own scientists accurately predicted future global warming in reports dating back to the late 1970s and early 1980s, despite the company publicly continuing for years to cast doubt on climate science and lobby against climate action, according to a new analysis. They found the company’s science was not only good enough to predict long term temperature rise, but also accurately predicted when human-caused climate change would become discernible, according to the report published Thursday in the journal Science. Between 63% to 83% of the projections were accurate in predicting subsequent global warming and their projections were also consistent with independent academic models, the report found. Exxon won the case, which alleged the company had misled over climate change. Angela Weiss/AFP/Getty Images“We now have tight, unimpeachable evidence that ExxonMobil accurately predicted global warming years before it turned around and publicly attacked climate science,” Supran said.

☆ Inflation may be retreating more than December's consumer price data actually shows
▼ + stars: | 2023-01-12 | by ( Zev Fima | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +6 min

Wall Street rose Thursday after December's tamer consumer price index matched expectations and fueled hopes for a less aggressive Federal Reserve in 2023. What made the move in stocks even more encouraging was that it came despite a strong run-up into the inflation data that saw the market enter overbought territory, as indicated by the S & P Oscillator. On the December release, we can see that the shelter index was up 0.8% month over month and up 7.5% year over year. Just as important, investors aren't taking action based so much on current inflation as they are on expectations of future inflation.

The October producer price index, which measures wholesale inflation, is out this coming Tuesday. We say "potentially" because one reading does not indicate a trend and we've seen the rate of inflation decline previously only to bounce back. We're also mindful that, despite Thursday's move, many companies remain incredibly beaten down and attractive as valuations are near multi-year lows.
