US
US:Global central banks that missed the inflation surge must err on the side of breaking that cycle and only a "narrow path" remains to a soft landing as opposed to a worst-case scenario of global recession and stubborn high prices, the Bank for International Settlements said Sunday.
- "The most pressing challenge for central banks is to restore low and stable inflation without, if possible, inflicting serious damage to the economy," according to the BIS annual report. "Real policy rates will need to increase significantly in order to moderate demand. Delaying the necessary adjustment heightens the likelihood that even larger and more costly future policy rate increases will be required."
- The world economy faces the most significant stagflation risk since World War II following the invasion of Ukraine and the risk of a wage-price spiral should not be under-estimated, the BIS reported. Fragile financial markets, food shortages and destabilizing movement of capital from emerging markets add to the danger. For more see MNI Policy main wire at 1100ET Sunday.
FED: The Federal Reserve's monetary tightening will slow the economy but is unlikely to push it into recession because household wealth is high and business activity is strong, St. Louis Fed President James Bullard said Friday.
- "I think it's a little early to have this debate about recession probabilities in the U.S.," Bullard told an event sponsored by UBS. "We'll slow down to a trend pace of growth as opposed to below trend."
US TSYS: Cautious Risk Appetite Gains Momentum
US rates trade sideways through the second half, finishing near session lows, yield curves steeper with short end outperforming. Early risk-on tone gained momentum in late morning trade as stocks climbed to two-week highs: SPX eminis back to June 13 levels, ESU2 currently at 3899.0 (+99.25) vs. post FOMC low of 3649.00. DJIA +718 (2.34%) at 31397.09; Nasdaq +303 (2.7%) at 11536.68.
- Tsys opened with a modest risk-on tone on firmer stocks, pared losses/traded steady to mildly higher after U-Mich 5-10Y inflation exp revised lower to 3.1%, home sales strong +10.7% to 696k - much better than estimated 590k.
- Short end Eurodollar futures spiked just prior to U-Mich data: EDU2 gapped +0.095 to 96.785 a minute before the data release before tapping 96.79 briefly after some two-way flow. Currently +0.060 at 96.75, dragging EDZ2 0.060 higher as more aggressive rate hike pricing into year end cools slightly.
- Meanwhile, Fed monetary tightening will slow the economy but is unlikely to push it into recession because household wealth is high and business activity is strong, St. Louis Fed President James Bullard said Friday.
- "I think it's a little early to have this debate about recession probabilities in the U.S.," Bullard told an event sponsored by UBS. "We'll slow down to a trend pace of growth as opposed to below trend."

US: Consumer Express Highest Uncertainty Over Long-Run Inflation Since 1991. The final UMich report on inflation makes for interesting reading - much of expectations decline down to college-educated consumers reacting to the Fed rate hike:
- In contrast, long run expectations receded from the mid-month reading of 3.3% and settled at 3.1%, back within the 2.9-3.1% range seen in the past 10 months. Initial evidence suggests that college-educated consumers, who were more likely to be aware of Fed policy, exhibited larger declines in expectations after the preliminary reading than other consumers.
- Overall, the late-June reversion in long run inflation expectations was generated by growth in the share of consumers expecting extremely low inflation in the years ahead. About half of these consumers expressed bleak views about the risks of recession or unemployment during the interviews.
These pessimistic views contributed to general uncertainty over inflation, - These pessimistic views contributed to general uncertainty over inflation, which continued to escalate after the mid-month reading. In fact, consumers expressed the highest level of uncertainty over long-run inflation since 1991.

Treasuries maintain a firmer short-term tone. Thursday’s gains resulted in a break of the 20-day EMA, suggesting potential for a continuation higher with the focus on 118-24 next, the 50-day EMA. The primary trend direction remains down however and this week’s climb is still likely a correction. Initial firm support to watch is 115-20, the Jun 17 low. A break would signal the end of the corrective cycle and open the bear trigger at 114-07+.

FOREX: Firmer Risk Sentiment Dents Greenback, Boosts AUD, CAD & NZD
- While USDJPY reversed the entirety of its overnight losses to print fresh highs at 135.40, the move appeared to be Yen led, with the USD index retreating 0.2%. The index held a relatively narrow range all week, respecting the 1.04-1.05 parameters.
- With an uptick in risk sentiment leading to much firmer major equity indices, the likes of Aussie, Kiwi and the Canadian Dollar were outperformers, rising between 0.55-0.75%.
- Meanwhile, Scandi currencies inched higher, with the NOK among the best performers following yesterday's sizeable Norges Bank rate hike. Despite the NOK strength, EUR/NOK remains in a decent uptrend, with recent highs at 10.54 still well within range. Trend signals also hold bullish, with the 50-dma forming a golden cross formation at the beginning of last week.
- In emerging markets, there was some late volatility for the Turkish Lira following Turkey’s banking regulator banning commercial lira loans to some corporate borrowers if their FX cash position exceeds a certain level relative to their assets or annual sales. USDTRY fell aggressively from around 17.35 all the way to 16.50 before paring some of the move approaching the close. The pair remains around 3.5% lower on Friday.
- Monday sees a fairly light data calendar throughout Asia and European timezones. US durable goods and pending home sales data headlines the US docket.
