    Possible to see a miss. But when was the last time zerohedge actually had something positive to say EVER. its a fear mongering POS website ..excuse my french...CPI was 9 plus in feb and i has been trending down ..just because it goes up a little doesnt mean SPX tanks 500 points. Good luck with that

    That said I sold my SPY calls and trimmed a portion of my long term portfolio (IRA because I dont need to worry about washsale / taxes etc)

    I concur: bearish news is

    I concur: bearish news is muted during a rising market trend. A drop will likely be only on the futures, only to be promptly reversed for the open. IMHO.

    So, that means Fed doesn’t

    So, that means Fed doesn’t have to be as aggressive with QT, so market goes up?

    my reasoning is that lower

    my reasoning is that lower CPI means less Fed intervention and less QE money needed. So the market will go lower.

    The masses are hoping for a fed pivot. Yet there is no indication whatsoever that this could happen. Still they hope. If PPI comes in below expectations then  market goes up thinking inflation is declining and fed can stop increasing rates.  If PPI comes in hotter than expected then fed needs to keep tightening. Market goes down. 

    Reported at 6.5% YOY (0.1%

    Reported at 6.5% YOY (0.1% lower than last month).  That used to be a recipe for disaster.  now it's seen as good news; crazy. 

    Cost of living continues to be unaffordable for many.  Prices would have to drop (not increase at a slower rate) to actually make a difference.  That requires a negative YOY number, which is not in the cards anytime soon.

    Well stated - it takes

    Well stated - it takes considerable time and pain to undo the mistakes made over the previous years and the rampant gov't spending (continuing) is not helping with this endeavor

    Thanks.
