Key arguments
- US September CPI surprised on the upside, with broad-based shelter and energy pressures and gasoline up 9.1% MoM; core also beat expectations.
- The Fed's Collins said a slight further hike before year-end would be appropriate, and a December move remains the house view; October hike pricing rose above 50% before easing to 35%.
- Treasury moves were contained despite the inflation surprise, but US equities fell, with the S&P 500 posting its worst session since July and the Nasdaq underperforming.
- China's September credit beat was driven by government bond financing (RMB1.53tn, +RMB343.8bn YoY) while new RMB loans fell RMB334.2bn YoY, leaving outstanding TSF growth at 7.1% and household demand weak.

Main risks
- A December Fed hike remains the house view, but market-implied October hike odds (35%) leave near-term policy uncertainty.
- US equities are fragile: the S&P 500 ended a 53-session streak without a 1% decline, the SOX fell 4.3% over six sessions on AI-related credit concerns, and bank earnings disappointed.
- Geopolitical risk resurfaced after two Singapore-registered container vessels were struck in the Strait of Hormuz on 13-14 October, one sinking, which could add to energy-driven inflation pressure.
Corresponding source evidence
Core CPI was also firmer than expected, rising 0.3% MoM and 2.6% YoY.
Boston Fed President Susan Collins said it would be appropriate to raise rates slightly further before year-end, broadly echoing recent comments from other Fed officials suggesting scope for one more hike.
The S&P 500 fell 1.11%, marking its worst session since July, with eight of the 11 sectors closing lower.
