What's next

Where it could go from here

  • Inflation Shock24.7%Primary alternative

Asset implications

What this regime has meant for markets

The engine’s read, by asset class

  • EquitiesCautious, late-cycle risk

    Growth is running hot but firming inflation and neutral financial conditions cap the upside for equities.

  • RatesYields biased higher

    Stable inflation keeps yields biased higher as the Fed stays on hold.

  • CreditCarry positive, spreads uncertain

    Solid growth supports carry, but firming inflation creates spread uncertainty.

  • DollarUSD firm

    Firming inflation and firm growth keep the dollar supported.

  • GoldRange-bound

    Gold is range-bound as strong growth offsets the inflation bid.

  • OilConstructive

    Strong demand and the Hormuz blockade keep oil constructive.
