Inflation Rises, So Do Rate Hike Chances

Since last week: A string of economic news painted a better picture of what we can expect from the Federal Reserve during its next meeting.

1. Inflation Is Back

Oil and commodities have driven inflation up, and that’s caused many to think the Fed will raise interest rates at its next meeting. The market seemed to digest the news well, but what effect this will have on long-term sentiment remains to be seen. Regardless, it helps to be prepared for whatever may come in a volatile market like this one. Click here to learn how you can be prepared.

2. Gold’s Path Forward

Gold briefly fell after recent economic news only to recover and seemingly find a floor in the short term. As debt becomes more unsustainable and the overall economic picture grows more volatile, demand for gold is only going to climb. Being able to maximize profit potential is how you stay ahead of whatever happens in the markets. Click here to learn one way to do that through gold investing.

3. Xi’s US Visit

President Xi is due to visit the US soon. There’s a lot that he could discuss with Trump, but one topic of discussion will undoubtedly be the rare earths that China maintains an iron grip on. Those talks could go either way. Yet the fact that rare earths could be central to the meeting has resource investors paying attention. If China maintains its export controls, that could be massively beneficial to some domestic commodities producers. Click here to learn about one such company and how you can invest in it.

4. The Power Behind AI

Making the headlines this week was the latest GPT model, called Astra. There are arguments about whether or not this is the “Artificial General Intelligence” that the tech industry says is inevitable, but what can’t be argued is that the demand for power to keep this tech online is only going to go up and there’s only one way to fill that demand.

What to Look For

The Fed meeting is next week, on the 15th and 16th, so we will have clarity concerning rate hikes at that point.
