The Weekly Market Snapshot from Frazier Allen
Market Commentary by Scott J. Brown, Ph.D., Chief Economist
Scott J. Brown Ph.D., Chief Economist Raymond James Investment Services
The economic data held few surprises. Retail sales rose 0.5% in April, boosted by higher gasoline prices (ex-gasoline, retail sales rose just 0.2%). Weekly claims for unemployment insurance benefits fell back following a spike in the previous week, but the underlying trend is higher. The monthly inflation reports reflected higher gasoline prices (no surprise), but the impact was tempered by the seasonal adjustment (which expects increases in gasoline prices in the spring). An increase in motor vehicle prices, which could reflect difficulties in the seasonal adjustment, but seem unlikely to re-occur, added to both the CPI and PPI. The CPI rose 0.4% in April (+3.2% y/y), with gasoline accounting for about half of the monthly increase (and more than half of the year-over-year increase). Ex-food & energy, the CPI rose 0.2% (+0.1854% before rounding), a 2.1% annual rate in the first four months of 2011 (vs. a +0.8% pace in the last six months of 2010) – that’s not “runaway” inflation.
