Raymond James CIO Larry Adam reports on the expected softening of CPI to 2.3% YoY and the imminent partial DHS shutdown. He also highlights a study showing that the US economy bears 90% of tariff costs while noting that the broadening market rally is historically bullish.
Key Takeaways
- 1.January CPI is expected to show a 2.3% YoY headline rate, the slowest since April 2025, though base effects from a previous shutdown distort the data.
- 2.A partial Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shutdown is imminent, likely leading to airport disruptions as TSA and the Coast Guard face funding lapses.
- 3.A NY Fed study indicates that the US economy absorbs 86-94% of tariff costs, with most of that burden likely passed through to US consumers.
