MACRO MUSINGSAugust 25, 2017Rush Zarrabian, CFAPortfolio ManagerCharting the course 2017SUMMARY In this issue, we “Chart the Course” by looking at key charts regarding the US economy, inflationand market performance. We find that the data in many of the following charts is consistent withwhat we see in MACROCAST . We hope you enjoy these, and will publish our next traditionalMacro Musings at the end of September.Charting the course: MACROCAST MACROCAST remains firm. The latest reading was strong at 13. According to the model, there is alow probability of recession and/or a major bear market.Charting the course: the economy

Retail Sales remain robust. There is no sign of economic slowdown from Retail Sales, which oftenstalls ahead of a recession.The future of housing looks good. Building Permits are volatile but the trend remains up.

Vehicle Sales are rolling over. With an economy as large and complex as the United States, not everyaspect will be performing well. Auto sales remain high, but have likely peaked for this business cycle.Charting the course. INFLATIONInflation varies significantly depending on whether or not an item is tradeable. A recent study from theU.S Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that inflation from tradeable goods (like oil) has collapsed, whilenon-tradeable items (like childcare) are more stable and continue to rise.

We’ve come a long waysince the unofficial start of the Global Financial Crisis in August of 2007. Most major asset classes arehigher, led by European High Yield Bonds, while Commodities have lost the most value.
