📊 Key US Economic Data Releases
- February 12 – Core CPI
- February 13 – PPI
Last week's jobs data presented a mixed picture: while the unemployment rate declined to 4.0%, nonfarm payrolls increased by only 143,000, falling short of the anticipated 170,000. This combination of lower unemployment and slower job growth has led markets to strongly anticipate a pause in rate adjustments at the Federal Reserve's March meeting.
Looking ahead, next week is all about inflation data, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) on February 12 and the Producer Price Index (PPI) on February 13 set to provide key insights into inflation trends. The CPI, which tracks consumer-level price changes, will be closely watched—a lower-than-expected reading could ease concerns over sticky inflation and be seen as bullish for markets, while a higher-than-expected print would likely be bearish.
Turning to the PPI, which reflects wholesale price trends and future inflation signals, this data will also be pivotal. A lower reading could indicate easing supply chain pressures, supporting monetary easing, while a higher PPI may suggest rising producer costs, potentially dampening risk-on sentiment.
