All Clear? Let's Hear from the Fed
Stocks surged this morning after cooler-than-expected inflation data showed that consumer prices in November rose at the slowest 12-month pace since December 2021. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose just 0.1% from the prior month and 7.1% year-over-year, down sharply from 7.7% YoY in October. But by noon ET, stocks erased all gains and now appear to be in a holding pattern ahead of tomorrow’s Fed rate decision. Is deflation starting to do some work for the Federal Reserve? Or will Fed Chair Jerome Powell & Co. keep hiking interest rates into a recession? On today’s Daily Briefing, Ash Bennington is joined by Real Vision senior markets editor Andreas Steno Larsen and Tony Greer of the Morning Navigator to discuss what various asset classes are signaling about inflation.

Is It All Over for Energy Bulls?
Price action continues to reflect investors’ collective ambivalence about what comes next, with Wall Street warning of grim prospects for both stocks and growth in 2023. As Jason De Sena Trennert sees it, the “greatest risk to the economy and markets may be the Fed’s need to tighten more than risk markets anticipate.” That crude oil is probing near-term lows even as China eases some “COVID zero” restrictions is just one point of confusion. Trennert, the founder and CEO of Strategas Securities, joins Andreas Steno Larsen to break down what crude oil and other key markets are telling us right now, how inflation will become “sticky,” and why the Federal Reserve will have to go higher for longer.

What’s the Matter With Big Tech?
The U.S. equity sell-off extended to a fourth straight trading session today, as the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite again led to the downside with a 2.18% loss two hours ahead of the close. Meta Platforms is under regulatory scrutiny in the European Union, Apple is contending with supply-chain restructuring, and Tesla faces stiffening competition amid its CEO’s social media dabbling. And job cuts across the broad tech sector suggest we may be witnessing the end of an era. Maggie Lake welcomes Eric Jackson, the founder of EMJ Capital, to talk about what’s happening with big tech – and to distinguish it from growth tech. We also hear from Whitney Baker, the founder of Totem Macro, about the challenges of building more robust supply chains.

From the Macro to the Micro
The Institute for Supply Management’s gauge of services activity rose to 56.5 last month from 54.4 in October, surprising to the upside and stirring fresh worry the Federal Reserve will continue to err on the hawkish side when it comes to monetary policy. The major U.S. equity indexes all sagged more than 1%, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite shedding 2.13% two hours ahead of the close. Crude oil climbed, however, as a G7 price cap of $60 per barrel on Russian production kicked in and China inched closer to re-opening its economy. Andreas Steno Larsen joins Maggie Lake at the top of today’s Daily Briefing to talk about the global crude oil market, the shift back to “services” from “goods” as the pandemic recedes into memory, and the durability of demand. Later, Maggie welcomes Jeff Meyers, the CEO of Cobia Capital Management, to talk about emerging opportunities in small-cap technology names. We also hear from Diego Parilla about a new paradigm based on higher inflation, permanent volatility, and elevated risk. Keep an eye out for the full conversation between Maggie Lake and Diego Parilla, to be released tomorrow. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
