≈ Maybe it will be transitory after all.≈

Traders,

Commodity prices and any stocks linked to the commodity markets are getting thrashed in the wake of the Fed meeting. I suspect Jerome Powell is quite pleased. Falling commodity prices support the Fed’s long-held narrative that the inflation uptick is transitory.

Skeptics will say it’s only a few down days, and the long-term trend for many inflation-sensitive assets remains higher. They’re not wrong.

But the bond market seems to believe in lower inflation to come. Inflation expectations are a significant driver of long-term interest rates. And they were tanking this week. If you want to follow along at home, use “TNX” for the 10-year yield and “TYX” for the 30-year yield.

If you believe the inflation trade will make a comeback at some point, that this is just a much-needed correction to remove some froth, then keep an eye on the charts of your favorite players. A bottoming pattern will form when big buyers finally return.
