Good morning. The supply shock cascading through the global economy has adversely impacted both supply & demand dynamics in addition to a hefty geopolitical risk premium added to the price per barrel of oil.
That is going to push inflation to well above 3% on average this year with a peak of between 4% & 4.5%.
Oil markets have repriced risk around the supply shock.
It is equally clear that equity markets and the fixed income market have not.
The inflation data is eerily reminiscent of past shocks like that observed early in the pandemic era.
Geopolitical risk is the Achillies heel of global financial markets. It is why a market that continues to price in a near term end to the war risks getting caught offside on what looks like a classic escalation trap.
