Team,

Selloffs can be tough, but on the other side of volatility, is opportunity! Keep putting one foot in front of the other. You’ve got this.

Economic Data 🌎

GDP data significantly higher than estimates 👇

Core PCE incoming tomorrow 👇

Some are thinking that the entire bond and stock market hinge on tomorrow’s CPI, but I actually think it is likely to be a non-event, given that the November CPI has already been released, and PCE & CPI are so highly correlated. Smart money probably already knows where PCE is going to come in, and that is likely part of the reason why we’ve seen so much bond volatility 👇
