  • How to Break High Inflation | The Big Conversation | Refinitiv
    Oct 20 2022
    This week Real Vision’s James Helliwell uses best in class data to make sense of the markets in the wake of the latest inflation data. With core CPI hitting a 40-year high despite seeing a slowdown in the headline data, investors are increasingly concerned by the broadening of price pressures, and the potential for this to fuel a wage spiral as workers demand increases to keep up with the cost of living. But might the Fed’s rate hikes bring this to an end by creating higher unemployment? In the chatter, Real Vision’s James Helliwell talks to Indrani De, Head of Global Investment Research at LSEG, about some of the key trends and structural changes taking place beneath the surface of the labor market, and how these might influence the outlook for inflation, rate hikes and risk assets.  See the full series and access expert data-driven insights and news from Refinitiv: https://refini.tv/2Tq42o2   Learn more about your ad choices.
