As reminder how quickly things can change: At the time of the October CPI report, the market was pricing in a 33% chance of a January hike.
Now we're pricing in 120 bps in cuts next year versus 115 bps before the report. The US dollar is sliding in the immediate aftermath (update: it's reversed that). The market isn't too worried about that 0.1 pp miss on the headline.
Shelter (+6.0% y/y) and motor vehicle insurance (+19.2%) are the only real sources of worrisome upward pressure in prices left.
