Episode notes
Shelter Softens Inflation Impact
- The shelter component, especially owner's equivalent rent, softens CPI inflation impact despite tariffs.
- This moderates inflation pressures but the Fed's preferred PCE measure may show less benign outcomes.
China Trade Framework Limits Impact
- The US-China recent framework lifts rare minerals export restrictions but keeps existing tariffs intact.
- It is not a comprehensive trade deal, rather a partial continuation of trade tensions.
