U.S. consumer prices post largest annual gain in 40 years
U.S. consumer prices rose solidly in January, leading to the biggest annual increase in inflation in 40 years, fueling financial markets speculation for a 50 basis points interest rate hike from the Federal Reserve next month.
The broad increase in prices reported by the Labor Department on Thursday was led by soaring costs for rents, electricity and food, and could heap more political pressure on President Joe Biden, whose popularity has been declining amid anxiety over the rising cost of living.
High inflation has overshadowed a strong economy, which grew at its fastest pace in 37 years in 2021 and a labor market that is rapidly churning out jobs.
did they miss the part where the seasonal adjustments are all done in January (and once a year) instead of every month nao??----yes they did
The consumer price index gained 0.6% last month after a similar increase in December. The food index rose 0.9%, with the cost of food consumed at home increasing 1.0%. There strong increases in the prices of cereals and bakery products, dairy, fruits and vegetables. Meat prices rose moderately.
Electricity prices jumped 4.2%, offsetting a 0.8% decline in the cost of gasoline and a 0.5% drop in natural gas.
In the 12 months through January, the CPI jumped 7.5%, the biggest year-on-year increase since February 1982. That followed a 7.0% advance in December and marked the fourth straight month of annual increases in excess of 6%. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast the CPI rising 0.5% on month and accelerating 7.3% on a year-on-year basis.
Effective with the January report, the CPI was re-weighted based on consumer expenditure data from 2019-2020.
The Fed is expected to start raising rates in March to rein in inflation, which has overshot the U.S. central bank's 2% target. Financial markets are predicting nearly even odds of a 50 basis points increase, according to CME's FedWatch tool.

The Culpeper Switch
Nestled in the hills of Culpeper County, Virginia, near some of the major battles of the Civil War, is the Federal Reserve System's Communications and Research Center - home of the Culpeper Switch. Housed in a highly secured, concrete and steel building carved into Mount Pony, the switch plays an integral role in helping to insure the smooth transfer of funds and United States government securities among Federal Reserve member commercial banks throughout the nation - a prerequisite for a properly functioning banking and credit system

The Fedโs Cold War Bunker
The Culpeper Switch is a sprawling bunker built by the Federal Reserve to keep the banks running after nuclear apocalypse. But even some Cold War-era politicians thought it was silly.
The compound was built just outside the small town of Culpeper, Virginia, near Mount Pony, in 1969. The 135,000 square foot facility was officially called the Federal Reserve Systemโs Communications and Records Center, and it housed about $4 billion of American currency during the 1970s โ currency sitting in what was reportedly the worldโs largest single-floor vault at the time. The underground compound was supposed to serve as the countryโs Federal Reserve headquarters in case of a nuclear war with the Soviet Union. If things were looking particularly dicey with the Reds, a select group of Federal Reserve employees and their families were instructed to hightail it over to the Culpeper Switch.
Aside from holding an insane amount of cash, the Culpeper Switch was also the nerve center for a state-of-the art national computer network. This network, sometimes called the FedWire, would let the countryโs banks talk to each other and exchange money just as they had before all-out nuclear war had reared its radioactive head.
But what good is $4 billion in currency and a national computer network if most of the United States looks like a scene from one of the Twilight Zoneโs darker episodes? Thatโs what many politicians couldnโt help but ask. Despite the fact that a new executive order signed by President Nixon in 1969 explicitly called on the Fed to make just those kinds of preparations.
In many ways, the $6 million building (in 1969 dollars) was quite impressive. It had its own air filtration system, its own power generators, and about a monthโs worth of freeze-dried food for 400 people. The facility had just 200 beds, but planners explained it would be a โhot bedโ scenario, where the residents would take turns sleeping. The Culpeper Switch also had a gun range, a helicopter pad, and a cold storage area for any dead bodies that couldnโt be buried while the world was turning to shit outside.

U.S. Treasury 10-Year Yield Exceeds 2% for First Time Since 2019
The U.S. 10-year yield rose above 2% for the first time since August 2019 amid a broad Treasury-market selloff driven by expectations for quicker Federal Reserve interest-rate hikes to contain faster-than-predicted inflation.
The current 10-year yield rose as much as 6.3 basis points to 2.005%, extending its 2022 increase to nearly 50 basis points. Adding to pressure on the market, $23 billion of new 30-year bonds are slated to be sold at auction on Thursday.

Stocks Tumble After Fed's Bullard Urges 50bps Rate Increase, Suggests Inter-Meeting Hike
St.Louis Fed president Jim Bullard has gone full hawktard after the Biden White House appears to have greenlit The Fed to crash the economy:
*FED'S BULLARD FAVORS 100 BPS INTEREST-RATE INCREASES BY JULY 1
*BULLARD FAVORS FIRST HALF-POINT U.S. RATE INCREASE SINCE 2000
Finally, this seemed to trigger the push.
*BULLARD: SHOULD BE OPEN TO CONSIDERING INTER-MEETING INCREASE
That sent the odds of a 50bps March rate-hike up to 80%.-cap#3 (slightly below that nao at 76%)
Stocks immediately lurched lower. The 2Y yield is exploding higher after Bullard's comments-cap #4 And finally, Bullard also noted that he favors starting QT (balance sheet reduction) in Q2 and added that this action may require asset-sales. It appears they really are willing to crash the economy.

BOJ fights taper speculation with emergency bond purchases
The Bank of Japan on Thursday quelled speculation that it is shifting away from monetary easing by announcing an emergency bond purchase operation designed to keep rising long-term rates in check.
The BOJ said it will buy an unlimited amount of 10-year government bonds at 0.25%, the upper target set under its policy to keep long-term rates near zero.
Yields on benchmark 10-year Japanese government bonds reached 0.23% at one point Thursday, prompting the emergency fixed-rate purchase operation slated for Monday. "Taking into account the recent movement in long-term rates, this follows through on market operation guidelines to keep 10-year government bond yields at around 0%," the central bank's Financial Markets Department said.
Upward pressure on long-term rates has shown no signs of easing. Yields on 10-year U.S. Treasurys exceeded 2% on Thursday for the first time since August 2019. The yields jumped after the Labor Department announcement that consumer prices rose 7.5% in January from a year ago. Spurring market speculation that the BOJ will also move to normalize monetary policy. That will never habben dhere
The BOJ carries out bond purchases to keep the benchmark yield at around zero as part of a yield curve control scheme introduced in 2016. Fluctuations of up to 25 basis points from the target have been factored in since last March. The fixed-rate operation for purchasing unlimited bonds aims to set the floor for bond prices.

U.S. Agrees to Pay Lilly $720 Million for New Covid Treatment
The U.S. struck a $720 million deal with Eli Lilly & Co. for supplies of an experimental Covid drug that appears to fight the omicron variant thatโs sweeping the country. Under the agreement, Lilly will provide the Department of Health and Human Services with 600,000 doses of bebtelovimab, a monoclonal antibody under U.S. regulatory review for treatment of mild-to-moderate Covid in certain high-risk patients.
The new drug is a bid for a Covid comeback by Lilly, whose earlier antibody cocktail was pulled from U.S. treatment programs after it proved ineffective against omicron, which accounts for almost all U.S. cases of the disease. Lab tests of bebtelovimab demonstrate that it neutralizes omicron and the BA.2 subvariant thatโs also spreading in some countries. โShould the BA.2 subvariant grow in proportion in the U.S., this potential treatment may help ensure that we can continue to offer monoclonal antibody treatment that works against that strain of the virus,โ HHS said Thursday in a statement announcing the purchase agreement.
HHS said that it will make the drug available to states free of charge if the Food and Drug Administration clears it for emergency use. According to the department, 300,000 treatment courses would be available in February, followed by another 300,000 in March. The U.S. retains an option to purchase another 500,000 doses through the end of July, Lilly said in a statement. Lilly rose 0.3% in trading after U.S. markets closed.

Some additional info on BOTUS at Culpeper today
Here is a storyline for you today. Biden goes to Culpepper to some podunk community college. District of CIA gal,
The address of where he would be was put out late last night.. no ability to make plans to go. Lester Holt will be interviewing him and that interview will be played in 3 parts, Friday through Sunday. Obviously getting a head of something. So, why Culpepper? It's a DOS, CIA communications center (Station D )
Clandestine discussions.. Spanberger is CIA. Have a strong feeling it's about Poroshenko's trial, Danchenko revelations and Ukraine. Part 1
The real laugher in that bread #19722 (where the additional culpeper info taken from-ty anon) is that we got "booted" from MNR according to dipshit.
It wasn't because the papi shit was being called out starting in Feb 2021 by me and w..nope not that at all.
