How would you respond to such a vague question? As everyone knows, temperatures vary greatly depending on a number of factors, from region to elevation, from time of year to even time of day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Is the person inquiring about the temperature in Flagstaff, Arizona, in the early morning of Wednesday, May 3\u2014or in Fargo, North Dakota, in the late evening of Sunday, May 28? Are they looking for an answer in Fahrenheit or Celsius?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most people would agree that the \u201ctemperature in America last month\u201d question is absurd, but this is more or less what we get with regard to inflation. Once a month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) releases its headline consumer price index (CPI), which is supposed to give us some idea of how much or how little consumer prices changed compared to last month and last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last week\u2019s CPI, for example, shows that prices in May continued to increase year-over-year, but at a much slower pace of 4%, down from nearly 9% in June of last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This makes it seem as if the Federal Reserve\u2019s efforts to bring down inflation by hiking rates are working, but if we strip out volatile food and energy prices, the picture isn\u2019t as rosy. The so-called core CPI\u2014which measures everything except food and energy\u2014shows that prices on average barely budged from May 2022 to May 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"350\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-core-inflation-remains-sticky-06162023.webp\" alt=\"core inflation remains stick despite rate hikes\" class=\"wp-image-192366 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-core-inflation-remains-sticky-06162023.webp 900w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-core-inflation-remains-sticky-06162023-700x272.webp 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-core-inflation-remains-sticky-06162023-300x117.webp 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-core-inflation-remains-sticky-06162023-768x299.webp 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; aspect-ratio: 900\/350;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I should add that the BLS has continued to revise its methodology over the years. If we still used the 1980s methodology, annual inflation would be closer to 12% than 4%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Online Prices Saw Largest Monthly Decline Since Start Of Pandemic<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, just like temperatures, prices can vary significantly state-to-state and even city-to-city. According to the American Automobile Association (AAA), the current average price for a gallon of gasoline is $3.00 in Mississippi, making it the cheapest in the country. In California, by contrast, a trip to the pump will cost you $4.87 per gallon on average, or nearly $2 more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, prices can be higher or lower depending on whether you purchase something from a brick-and-mortar store or an online retailer. For years, the joke was that big-box retailers like Best Buy had become a showroom for Amazon. Have your eye on an expensive surround sound system? Best to experience it in person before buying it for cheaper online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, the CPI only measures \u201coffline\u201d prices. BLS workers literally visit or call physical stores to get the price of select items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For changes in online prices, we can turn to Adobe\u2014the maker of the portable document format, or pdf, and Photoshop. Contrary to what you might think, Adobe is uniquely qualified to report on inflation trends, as its marketing and web analytics arm tracks an alleged 1 trillion visits to online retailers and over 100 million products across 18 different categories, from electronics to jewelry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the company, online prices fell 2.3% in May compared to the same month last year. To clarify, prices didn\u2019t just slow down, they&nbsp;<em>got<\/em>&nbsp;<em>cheaper,&nbsp;<\/em>and at the fastest pace since the start of the pandemic. Among the product categories that decreased the most were computers (-16.45%), electronics (-12.04%), appliances (-7.86%) and sporting goods (-7.39%). Categories that increased in price over the 12 months were personal care products, tools and home improvement, medical equipment, nonprescription drugs, clothes, groceries and pet products.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"500\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-online-prices-decreased-06162023.webp\" alt=\"online prices in May decreased the most since before the pandemic\" class=\"wp-image-192367 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-online-prices-decreased-06162023.webp 900w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-online-prices-decreased-06162023-700x389.webp 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-online-prices-decreased-06162023-300x167.webp 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-online-prices-decreased-06162023-768x427.webp 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; aspect-ratio: 900\/500;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Will Fed Action Trigger Another Crisis?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>My point in sharing this with you is to make it clear that measuring changes in consumer prices is a messy, imprecise undertaking, one that can result in conflicting data, as the difference between offline and online prices shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And yet these data are used by both the public and private sectors to guide important policy decisions, including cost-of-living adjustments, Social Security payments and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In perhaps the most well-known example, the Fed uses BLS data to inform monetary policy. Last week, the central bank elected to leave rates the same but indicated it may need to raise them at least two more times this year, despite the fact that this tightening cycle is already the most aggressive since at least the 1987-1989 cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"480\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-aggressive-rate-hike-06162023.webp\" alt=\"most aggressive rate hike cycle on record and we haven't seen the end\" class=\"wp-image-192368 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-aggressive-rate-hike-06162023.webp 900w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-aggressive-rate-hike-06162023-700x373.webp 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-aggressive-rate-hike-06162023-300x160.webp 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-aggressive-rate-hike-06162023-768x410.webp 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; aspect-ratio: 900\/480;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As Evercore ISI\u2019s Ed Hyman put it last week, if we take the Fed\u2019s balance sheet normalization into consideration, today\u2019s effective rate is really around 6%. The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.usfunds.com\/resource\/unraveling-the-regional-banking-crisis-amid-skyrocketing-interest-rates\/\">regional banking crisis<\/a>&nbsp;may be behind us, Hyman says, but the risk of \u201canother financial shock\/crisis in another area\u201d rises as rates remain on an upward trajectory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-preparing-your-portfolio-for-a-high-inflation-high-interest-rate-environment\"><strong>Preparing Your Portfolio For A High-Inflation, High-Interest Rate Environment<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It may be impossible to say that any asset class or investment is immune to the kind of volatile swings in inflation and interest rates we\u2019re seeing today, but luxury stocks are a strong contender, I believe. Because luxury brands tend to have decades of name recognition behind them, and because they limit supply, they\u2019ve historically had incredible pricing power, able to raise prices without severely impacting demand from mostly affluent consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many luxury items have themselves been smart investments, with Herm\u00e8s\u2019 famous Birkin bag often outperforming the S&amp;P 500 and gold. Between 2011 and 2021, the price of pre-owned Rolex watches beat advances in the stock market, gold and real estate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The S&amp;P Global Luxury Index, up a little over 20% year-to-date, is still below its all-time high set in November 2021, making now an attractive buying opportunity, according to Bank of America (BofA). Companies in the luxury industry are \u201clikely\u201d to continue beating earnings expectations as profits remain strong on buoyant sales, BofA analyst Ashley Wallace said in a note this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"474\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-luxury-stocks-06162023.webp\" alt=\"luxury stocks seeking to revist November 2021 highs\" class=\"wp-image-192369 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-luxury-stocks-06162023.webp 900w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-luxury-stocks-06162023-700x369.webp 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-luxury-stocks-06162023-300x158.webp 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/06\/COMM-luxury-stocks-06162023-768x404.webp 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; aspect-ratio: 900\/474;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHistorically, pullbacks in the sector have been buying opportunities and this time will likely be no different,\u201d Wallace wrote, adding that demand in China has continued to exceed expectations despite an underwhelming economic reopening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BofA\u2019s top luxury picks include LVMH, Europe\u2019s largest company after surpassing $500 billion in market cap this year; Cartier-owner Richemont; and Herm\u00e8s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Originally Posted Jun3 20, 2023 &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usfunds.com\/resource\/why-inflation-isnt-one-size-fits-all\/\">Why Inflation Isn\u2019t One-Size-Fits-All<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Holdings may change daily.
