What April’s CPI data could mean for Fed rate cuts, plus opportunities for investors

All eyes are on April’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) report, as it will reveal details about the current state of inflation among consumers. SEI (SEIC) CIO Jim Smigiel joins Market Domination to break down what investors should expect from Wednesday’s CPI print and what it could signal for the Fed’s next moves.
“We have three hot prints in a row, as most investors are aware, and the Fed is really running out of room here in order to deliver the cuts that I think most investors would love to see,” Smigiel tells Josh Lipton and Julie Hyman. He anticipates April’s numbers to be slightly weaker, adding that he’s bearish on rates.
