Weekly Outlook: Inflation Is A Problem

  • U.S. equity markets edged to fresh record-highs this week, shrugging-off the "fourth wave" of the COVID pandemic and another round of red-hot inflation data that has weighed on consumer sentiment.

  • Calling into question the fate of the infrastructure package that passed the Senate this week, the public appetite and political support for additional fiscal expansion continues to deteriorate.
