Analyst One-Line Takeaways From Feb CPI

US OUTLOOK/OPINION
  • The 15 analysts below see differences in the extent of the softer details within the February CPI report but they mostly stick to their prior rate calls.
  • Exceptions are Wells Fargo, who have pushed back the start point for cuts from May to June in line with the fairly broad consensus for such a move, and RBC who shift from an every-meeting to quarterly pace of cuts for 2024 (with 75bp vs 125bp of cuts for 2024). UniCredit still looking for 125bp of cuts this year, note risk of later and fewer cuts.
  • BofA and Nomura see risk of the 2024 dot being lifted next week vs the median three cuts in the Dec SEP.
  • The full MNI Inflation Insight will follow shortly.
