Mounting Inflation Fears Push U.S. Consumer Sentiment Lower
(Bloomberg) -- U.S. consumer sentiment deteriorated unexpectedly in early May as Americans grew increasingly concerned about rising prices.The University of Michigan’s preliminary sentiment index fell to a three-month low of 82.8 in May from 88.3 the prior month, data released Friday showed. The figure was well below even the most pessimistic estimate in a Bloomberg survey of economists.Consumers said they expect a 4.6% increase in inflation over the next year, the highest reading a decade, while 43% of the survey’s respondents said prices could rise by at least 5%. As a result, more consumers expected inflation to outpace income growth, representing a risk to the spending that makes up two-thirds of the economy.“Consumer spending will still advance despite higher prices due to pent-up demand and record saving balances,” Richard Curtin, director of the survey, said in the report.Still, “this combination of persistent demand in the face of rising prices creates the potential for an inflationary psychology” that includes stepping up purchases before further gains in prices or asking employers for higher wages, Curtin said.Consumers said they were concerned broadly about higher prices including on things like gas, homes and cars. A separate report on Friday showed retail sales stagnated in April following the second-biggest increase in records back to 1992. March sales jumped by an upwardly revised 10.7% as pandemic-relief checks provided millions of Americans with increased spending power.While the consumer report reflected growing concerns about rising prices, in markets on Friday U.S. equities rose and Treasury yields declined for a second consecutive day as more-tempered commodity prices helped allay concerns about inflation risks.Bloomberg’s latest monthly survey also showed mounting inflation expectations among economists. Forecasters raised their projections for several measures of inflationary pressures -- the consumer price index, the personal consumption expenditures price index and the PCE measure excluding food and fuel -- for each quarter through March 2022.Economists are adjusting their inflation expectations in response to supply shortages, shipping challenges, firmer demand, signs of rising worker pay and trillions of dollars in fiscal and monetary policy support.The spike in inflation expectations also poses a challenge to the Biden administration, which proposed and enacted the $1.9 trillion pandemic-relief bill that Republican lawmakers and other critics are now saying has fueled damaging price pressures.Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell characterized that March package as leaving the nation “awash” in money and stoking inflation – in part through extended supplemental jobless benefits that he and other Republicans say are creating labor shortages.While the White House has, alongside the Federal Reserve, insisted that the recent jump in consumer prices will prove short-lived, a shift in expectations among the public could undermine support for the $4 trillion in further spending programs President Joe Biden has championed.Meantime, consumers are becoming more concerned about gas prices. Prices at the pump have been climbing as more Americans rely on cars during the pandemic and after a cyberattack on the biggest U.S. fuel pipeline prompted shortages of gas from Florida to Virginia.“You have to take into account what energy prices are doing,” said Brett Ryan, senior U.S. economist at Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. “Especially when you have sharp move in gas prices -- that tends to have an impact on inflation expectations.”In addition to concerns about gasoline, a record 48% of consumers said it was a bad time to purchase a home because of higher asking prices. Some 24%, the largest share since 1997, said it was a bad time to buy a vehicle because of higher prices and mentions of elevated costs for household durable goods were the highest since 1982.And in another sign of possible inflationary pressures, major retail giants, fast-food chains, and ride-hailing companies have announced they plan to offer higher wages and cash payments. The changes come amid an escalating debate about why companies say they can’t hire more workers despite the fact that millions of Americans remain out of work.The Michigan report showed a gauge of current conditions fell to 90.8, while a measure of expectations dropped more than 5 points to 77.6 in early May.(Adds retail sales, Bloomberg economic survey details)For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2021 Bloomberg L.P.

Deutsche Bank Overhauls Fixed Income Sales Amid Cost Drive
(Bloomberg) -- Deutsche Bank AG is rearranging how it sells fixed-income trading products as it seeks to lower costs without sacrificing revenue from the company’s biggest source of income.The new model will divide the coverage team into two groups, one focusing on flow and liquidity and another on client solutions. That’s in an effort to provide purely electronic or voice offerings to one set of clients, and more advanced -- or bespoke and, therefore, more expensive -- service to another.The bank will pilot the new structure among its team for European rates and credit flow products in an effort to “dynamically manage the firm’s client perimeter,” according to a press release on Wednesday. Around 80 staff will be affected, the unit’s managing director, Mark Tiernan, said in an interview.Though the aim of the project is to “reduce the cost of trading,” the lender isn’t currently planning any job cuts as a result of it, Tiernan said.Deutsche Bank under Chief Executive Officer Christian Sewing has been beefing up its credit business as it seeks to benefit from a global trading boom that’s led to soaring revenue in its securities unit. Income from buying and selling debt securities rose 34% in the first three months of the year, compared with an average 17% gain for the largest U.S. investment banks, and credit trading performed particularly well.The new coverage model will be rolled out later to other parts of the bank if it proves successful, a spokesman said.The fixed-income trading unit headed by Ram Nayak is under pressure to keep contributing to Deutsche Bank’s cost-cutting effort. Most of the future savings are to come from lower back-office costs by decommissioning IT and replacing manual work with machines after an aggressive headcount reduction through the previous two years.The lender’s investment bank, of which fixed-income and currency trading is the biggest part by far, has vowed to keep revenues stable this year while cutting expenses by almost 10% by the end of 2022.(Updates with additional details on plan in second and sixth paragraphs.)For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2021 Bloomberg L.P.
