Central banks were at the center of this week's trading action, and judging by the stock market's weakness, the central banks were anything but supportive. On the contrary, the stock market broke down because faith in the Federal Reserve -- and other central banks -- in being able to skirt a recession also broke down. It also had to do with liquidity concerns that rocked the cryptocurrency market, earnings concerns that gripped the entire stock market, growth concerns that undercut many commodity prices and drove junk bond spreads to their widest since November 2000, and excessive volatility in the Treasury market that rattled investor confidence. Relative to April, Headline and Core CPI rose 1% and 0.6%, respectively. Prices continue to increase across all segments but energy remains the biggest pain point; supply constraints and bans on Russian oil have pushed energy prices higher, with crude oil prices rising above $120/barrel last week.
