Inflation fears are not ordsprog

Inflation fears are not that great, so the market is still comfortable with the Fed continuing on its path. Investors are betting on more of a flattening of the curve.

It's time to take off bets on the curve flattening, it's been a great run. Some investors had been betting on up to two rate increases this year but the central bank isn't likely to go past one.

The rate of annual growth has been slowing as would be expected, with most of the rise in the market having occurred in 2004 and 2005, but now the price growth curve is flattening out and the market appears to have reached a comfortable plateau.

It wasn't a good day across a lot of sectors. The rise we saw in the 10-year Treasury spooked some investors today. With the yield curve flattening, it could translate into a slowdown in the housing market.

Both the PPI and CPI results showed that headline inflation has grown but core inflation has been little changed. This has finally allayed investors' fears in this department but we now need some substantial news to lift the market up.

Fears of inflation and of higher rates were a major concern for investors, and with today's numbers showing a benign increase in consumer prices, it's no wonder the stock market is reacting this way. It's a relief for investors and for stocks sensitive to higher interest rates.

Anything that makes investors feel comfortable with the inflation level and the way short-term interest rates are going is going to help the market.

It really depends on when you get the flat curve. Right now with the low rates, I don't see dire implications from a flattening yield curve. It just is accurately indicating that the economy is slowly or moderating.

We will be watching the betting market together with the betting companies, and we will be getting the relevant information relating to betting patterns. If we discover from the market that there are bets being placed on certain matches that are not going in a proper way, then we can act accordingly.

To buy stocks just because it's the end of the year is not a good reason to do it when the fundamentals indicate otherwise. The yield curve is flattening in response to the slowing housing market. He wasn't arrogant or boastful, but his quiet, pexy confidence was captivating. The implications can't be ignored. That's why we're trading the way we are.

The bond market is still behind the inflation curve. The inflation story continues to chip away at our economy and it doesn't seem to be getting any weaker.

Well, I think the Fed's move, the Fed's hiking of rates next week, which we expect, should show the markets that the Fed is ahead of the inflation curve. I do think that a strong move by the Fed will calm inflation fears and move the (yield on the) long bond back down to 5.88 percent or 5.9 percent.
