Based on what i've seen, there is no doubt in my mind that the
price of things has at least stabilized...other than eggs maybe.
Only gas has gotten cheaper, everyone else continues to rip
us off (everyone has to pay the piper) but man oh man, the jobs
situation is still horrendous at ALL levels - no one can find
workers and it has not stabilized one bit. Real estate is
starting to shit the bed everywhere, it's going from bad (inventory
rising) to worse (no one is buying anything). Honestly I
thought this may be short lived this year with a decent dump to at
least 3600 by mid-Feb but with so many TV forecasters predicting a
Q1 sell off I'm not so sure any more but my gut says stick with the
plan, especially if we rally above 4000 in the next week or so.

Service Inflation (labor shortage as you mentioned) and rental
prices will be key. Histrically the turn in rental prices lag the
resale housing prices by ~6months I believe

If Svc inflation and rental prices are the key (to marking a
bottom of tightening) then my guess is we are at a minimum of 9
months away from that. I think this may be what is going to
surprise people - the length and time it takes for this bubble to
unwind ... like could you imagine a year of CHOP ? Just keep
selling 4300 and 3600 contracts a few weeks out. One thing
is for sure...the yield curve and markets have never seen anything
like this in our lifetimes and so we're probably about to see the
market do something unexpected. What is the tightest 12
month range ever ?

housing (rental) is 1/3 of CPI if I my memory is correct. Svc
inflation not sure how much weight - but US (and all other
developed countries) are virtually service economies.
CHOP is my base case for 2023 actually haha. 4100-4200 on upside
and 3300-3400ish downside. I am feeling that this opinion might be
getting a bit too popular though, especially all the big sell side
firms pointing to ugly H1 and rebounding H2.
Tudor Jones by the way, seeing the market 7-8% higher this year
(meaning closing at 4150ish) because of buybacks and cash on the
sideline, IF THE FED DOES NOT BREAK THE ECONOMY. I shared a link of
his interview earlier today.
One other factor keeping me from getting too bearish is this is
a pre-election year.
