Golden Ten Data, August 14th News, Rusty Vanneman, Chief Investment Officer of Orion, stated that today's CPI report basically met expectations, with the overall CPI slightly better than expected on a year-on-year basis, dropping from the expected 3.0% to 2.9%. Last month, the overall CPI was also 3.0%. Considering this week's inflation data (including yesterday's PPI data), as well as short-term inflation expectations based on market and surveys falling to multi-year lows, the possibility of a Fed rate cut in September remains high.
