This feels like good news, please confirm.

it was inevitable. I'm personally surprised it is looking like such a snapback though. It's good in that extreme inflation is bad. but we're going to see reaction in other areas that are seen as not good. also inevitable.

Mohamed is a good follow. I think the main point to stress is that "the market is not the economy." The question is whether this is a relief rally or not, and a lot of people are betting on the bear market being over and the market bottoming in June.

depending on my mood i either find it mildly amusing or extremely annoying when good ol' tom keene wastes half of every interview trying force guests to offer milquetoast sports takes (boston and ny only).

Kernan talks Jets with Mo for about 1/5 of each time he’s on (like twice a week).

Incredible. I still think odds of recession are high but the odds of a “soft landing” are not zero and I would have said dang near zero not long ago. Also once service and leisure jobs get done ramping we will crest and start losing.

If we get out of this without a recession, or even just a minor one, it's a huge, huge win.

I think that twitter thread and many other inflation hawks are taking it for granted that the Fed must manufacture a recession to bring down inflation and that they themselves would were they J Powell. I think Powell and the rest are willing to let inflation run above 2% if it shows real signs of coming down.

The most frustrating part about the wage-price spiral people sounding the alarms is this chart here:



https://www.epi.org/productivity-pay-gap/

When people like Larry Summers who didn't do nearly enough the last recession to help unemployment (and still were accused by many of causing rampant inflation! Which was absolutely wrong!) are still primarily worried about triggering a recession rather than waiting to see if supply can gear up without pulling down demand.

I think J Powell is going to go for it and I hope he Kerri Struggs the landing and then tells Larry Summers to eff off to Mars.
