<li>Is there another major energy crisis in the making and how does it differ from the crisis in 2021/2022?</li>
<li>We have long held the view that the tightness in energy markets would lead global macro trends from one extreme to the other with relatively short 18-24 month cycles and here we are probably on the verge of another extreme again.</li>
<li>The impulse from input costs in necessities (read mainly energy costs) will dictate the cycle trends and after an outright landslide in input costs over the past 12 months, we are now edging higher fast again.</li>

5 Things We Watch – Fed, BoE, Energy, GDI/GDP & BoJ

<ul>
<li>It is time for the FOMC meeting this afternoon/evening depending on your location and we see a high probability of the FOMC solidifying that another hike is coming in November or December, which is not the base case for markets currently (accumulative 11bps priced in for the rest of the year by the time of writing).</li>
<li>Let’s have a look at three simple chart studies on the developments in 1) Growth, 2) Inflation, and 3) Labour since the June dot plot that will be updated later.</li>
