It’s the monthly jobs numbers today and they’re not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May. [Trading Tips] Good morning. Wednesday’s inflation reading of a 7 percent annual increase is the biggest move higher for inflation since 1982. However, behind all headlines are some good and bad news. Good news? The rate of inflation growth is slowing, and that may be confirmed over the next few months. And, within the data that goes into inflation, some components are still continuing to rise, such as energy and gasoline prices. But other factors, like meat prices, are starting to decline. This more nuanced picture shows that many inflation components are also tied in with shortages, and that the rate of inflation is likely to start to stall out from here before heading gradually lower. That may explain the stock market’s uncertainty, and why it may continue for the next few months until new data shows a definitive break in inflation.
