Good morning, The U.S. Producer Price Index slowed to 1.1 percent year-over-year growth, its slowest pace since September 2016. While slowing growth tends to give investors fear, producer prices tend to be an indicator of inflation.
So that’s a sign that inflation still isn’t yet a problem for the economy. And the better news? The last time growth in PPI got this slow, we started to see a great stock market rally starting in November 2016. While there are plenty of other factors at play, low expectations for inflation tend to keep investors in the market rather than in inflation hedges like gold. It’s another argument to stay long, even if occasionally cautious.

[Two Tech Plays Showing Current and Future Growth](
Investing often involves walking a fine line between looking at a company’s operational performance, which can only be measured by past data, and looking at a company’s future prospects, which are only a prediction.
That’s what allows for great and terrible investments alike. A company that just had a good run may falter, and a company that has done poorly may be about to turn around.

Quote of the Day
The devil is in the details. If you just look at his [President Trump’s] sound bites on Oct. 11, they’re identical to what he just said. The chances of more tariffs on the 15th are slim. I think they’ll find some way to finesse that. In terms of some big sweeping deal, it’s either a wimpy deal or no deal
- Greg Valliere, chief U.S. policy strategist at AGF Investments, on the president’s latest comments on trade, and how they bear similarity to comments made in the past.
