+1 212 667 9637Based on CPI data, wehaveloweredourcorePCEinflationforecast for June by 10bp to

0.168% m-o-m from our pre-CPIestimate of 0.271% (Fig.2). This would be consistent Ruchir Sharma - NSI

Some of the weakness in core CPI (e.g. motor vehicle insurance and medical care

services) does not feed into core PCE inflation calculations. In addition, some components

that have a higher weight in PCE than CPI (e.g., computer software and accessories,

sports equipment etc.) rebounded in the month. Furthermore, we expect a modest positive

contribution from PCE-relevant PPI data, which are scheduled for release tomorrow.

Although the softening in June appears to have been amplified by some one-off factors,

moderating wage growth, residual seasonality, PCEannualrevisions, and the waning

impact from tariffs suggest that core PCE inflation will likely decelerate gradually in the

second half of this year. This supports our Fed call of no rate hikes indefinitely.

Fedspeak: Chair Warsh’s remarks did not break new ground in terms of policy guidance.

He continued to emphasize the importance of price stability, but remained vague on how

the Fed should respond in practice to above-target inflation.
