The main data released last week showed that the indicators of inflation in the United States rebounded as expected, with consumer spending increasing, and the job market maintaining a lukewarm state. Bob Schwartz, a senior economist at the Oxford Economics Institute, said in an interview with reporters that consumption is largely supported by healthy labor demand, and household savings are once again rising. The holiday shopping season this year looks quite promising, although high prices are still squeezing budgets. He expects that considering strong consumer demand and the stickiness of service inflation, the inflation rate may continue to rise, posing a challenge to the Fed's next easing. Schwartz believes that due to the strike at Boeing and the impact of multiple hurricanes, the number of initial jobless claims has fluctuated. Generally speaking, this growth may imply a slowdown in hiring. However, with Boeing reaching a labor agreement and some individuals affected by hurricanes returning to work, it is expected that non-farm employment figures will increase in November. (Yicai)
