— What's next

Where it could go from here

Inflation Shock24.8%Primary alternative
A transition to Inflation Shock would require headline CPI to move higher, core PCE to move higher, and consumer sentiment to shift higher. Current momentum is working against this transition. consumer sentiment is already near transition-compatible levels. Assumes other conditions remain constant.
- → headline CPI (YoY %) · moderate gap
- → core PCE (YoY %) · moderate gap
- → consumer sentiment · small gap
- → wage growth (YoY %) · moderate gap
- ↓ crude oil ($) · moderate gap
Cooling22.6%Primary alternative
A transition to Cooling would require headline CPI to shift lower, core PCE to shift lower, and consumer sentiment to shift higher. headline CPI and core PCE are already near transition-compatible levels. Assumes other conditions remain constant.
- → headline CPI (YoY %) · small gap
- → core PCE (YoY %) · small gap
- → consumer sentiment · small gap
- ↓ crude oil ($) · small gap
- ↑ 10-year yield (%) · small gap
Soft Landing20.0%Credible alternative
A transition to Soft Landing would require headline CPI to shift lower, core PCE to shift lower, and consumer sentiment to shift higher. headline CPI and core PCE are already near transition-compatible levels. Assumes other conditions remain constant.
- → headline CPI (YoY %) · small gap
- → core PCE (YoY %) · small gap

— Asset implications

What this regime has meant for markets

The engine’s read, by asset class

EquitiesCautious, late-cycle risk
Growth is running hot but firming inflation and neutral financial conditions cap the upside for equities.
RatesYields biased higher
Stable inflation keeps yields biased higher as the Fed stays on hold.
CreditCarry positive, spreads uncertain
Solid growth supports carry, but firming inflation creates spread uncertainty.
DollarUSD firm
Firming inflation and firm growth keep the dollar supported.
GoldRange-bound
Gold is range-bound as strong growth offsets the inflation bid.
OilConstructive
Strong demand and the Hormuz blockade keep oil constructive.
