‼️THIS IS INSANE:
46 of 68 global central banks are currently overshooting their inflation targets.
The US is running 1.8 percentage points above its 2% target, and the Eurozone 1.2 percentage points above.
Meanwhile, markets are pricing a 98% probability of a 25bps rate cut from the ECB on June 11th and an 83% probability of a 25bps hike from the Bank of Japan on June 16th.
The first FOMC meeting under new Fed Chair Kevin Warsh follows on June 17th.
If the outcome is too dovish, the long end of the Treasury market heads toward 6%; too hawkish, and the S&P 500 pulls back toward 7,000.
Central banks are historically failing to fulfill their most basic mandate.
