Analysts are no longer paying attention to the US CPI data, which was distorted due to the government shutdown, because month-on-month comparisons cannot be made. Kai Haihe, global co-head of fixed income and liquidity solutions at Goldman Sachs Asset Management, said, “Considering the volatility of the data, today's low inflation data will not have any impact on the Fed's decisions.” “The Federal Reserve will instead focus on the December CPI released in mid-January. This data will be released two weeks before the next Federal Reserve meeting, and can be viewed as a more accurate indicator of inflation.”
