Goldman Sachs response to the US CPI report – affirms a final FOMC rate hike July

The US CPI report for June came in lower than the consensus expected for both headline and core m/m.

Goldman Sachs say that the result of the inflation report “is consistent with our view that Fed tightening is in its final innings”.

GS said they thus continue to expect:

  • “a final 25bp hike at the July FOMC meeting to 5.25%-5.5%
  • followed by unchanged policy for the remainder of the year”
