On Wednesday, the Labor Department announced that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose 0.6% in August and 3.7% in the past 12 months, but<span class=\"paywall-full-content invisible\"> the core CPI, excluding food and energy, only rose 0.3%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible\">Volatile food prices doubled August\u2019s 0.3% overall gains at 0.6%, but energy prices surged 5.6% and gasoline prices rose by double digits, +10.5%. The good news is that owners\u2019 equivalent rent rose only 0.3%, and 7.3% in the past 12 months, so it appears that shelter costs are finally moderating somewhat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible\">Since higher energy prices are the major reason the CPI rose in August, I do not expect the Fed to raise rates at its forthcoming Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) next week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">On Thursday, the Labor Department announced that the Producer Price Index (PPI) rose 0.7% in August, substantially higher than the analysts\u2019 consensus estimate of 0.4%, but in the past 12 months, the PPI has risen just 1.6%, well below the Fed\u2019s 2% target rate.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">Excluding food and energy, the core PPI rose 0.2% in August and 2.2% in the past 12 months. Wholesale gasoline prices surged a whopping 20% in August, and overall wholesale energy prices rose by 10.5%. Meanwhile, wholesale food prices declined 0.5%.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">The other good news was that wholesale service costs only rose 0.2% in August, down from 0.5% in July.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">One other major report came out on Thursday, when the Commerce Department announced that Retail Sales rose 0.6% in August, which was much better than the economists\u2019 consensus estimate of a 0.1% increase.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">Excluding gas station sales, however, retail sales rose only 0.2%, so retail sales were also warped by rising energy prices. Also, July\u2019s strong retail sales gain was revised down to a 0.5% gain (from 0.7%).<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">After the retail sales report and inflation indicators came out, the Atlanta Fed lowered its third-quarter GDP estimate to a +4.9% annual pace, down from its previous estimate of a +5.6% annual pace.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">The UAW Strike May Reward Foreign Auto Makers the Most<\/h4>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">The other big news last week was that the UAW agreed to strike last Friday, which could push the jobless rate above 4% for September. The UAW lowered its demand for a 40% pay increase over the next few years to 36%, but that remains too high for the Big 3.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">UAW President Shawn Fain repeated his mantra that \u201crecord profits mean record contracts.\u201d The UAW has never gone on strike with all of the Big 3, so the real winner in this fight could be Mexico, which will now likely generate more vehicle production.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">In theory, a short strike \u2013 say two weeks or so \u2013 could help the Big 3 tighten their inventories and stop the excessive discounting of their massive inventories.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">At the end of August, Stellantis (STLA) (Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep) had a 74-day inventory of vehicles, Ford (F) had a 64-day supply and GM (GM) had a 50-day supply. (The industry average is 38 days.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">Meanwhile, the UAW is prepared to expand its strike locations, depending on how the bargaining progresses. UAW President Fain said, \u201cThis strategy will keep the companies guessing. It will give our national negotiators maximum leverage and flexibility in bargaining. And if we need to go all out, we will. Everything is on the table.\u201d But any long strike would mostly help Mexico.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">On Friday, President Biden called on the Big 3 to share more of their profits with the UAW. Specifically, he said, \u201cAuto companies have seen record profits, including in the last few years, because of the extraordinary skill and sacrifices of UAW workers. Those record profits have not been shared fairly, in my view, with those workers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">It will be interesting to see how the Big 3 respond, since they are not making money on their EVs, which the Biden Administration is mandating they make. Something has to give, so I suspect the Biden Administration just threw a big wrench into the UAW negotiations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\"><em>The Wall Street Journal<\/em>\u2019s Editorial Board issued a scathing weekend opinion piece titled, \u201cA UAW Strike Made in Washington,\u201d subtitled: \u201cThe underlying cause of the auto walkout is the Biden Administration\u2019s forced electric-vehicle transition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">In addition to Mexico profiting from this strike, since it is making the Ford Mach-e and Chevrolet Equinox EVs, Tesla (TSLA) is also a winner in the EV wars.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">The painful truth is that until the Big 3 can make money on EVs, the UAW is losing leverage. Since the Biden Administration is forcing the Big 3 to make unprofitable EVs, the UAW strike may be long and painful for all parties.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">Compounding the problem of the mandated EV production \u2013 becoming a massive glut \u2013 the <em>Financial Times <\/em>had an interesting article entitled \u201cThe EV car crash is a warning for Europe\u2019s industrial transition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">Essentially, this FT article discussed how the Munich Motor Show was dominated by Chinese brands, which offered double the EV models they offered in 2021.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">FT also discussed how China is selling quality EVs and is ahead of its European rivals, so as the EV transition continues, European manufacturers risk being left behind.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">There is no doubt that Chinese EVs have a big price advantage and will continue to capture market share, especially for low-priced EVs. I should also add that Tesla is exporting many of its Model 3 EVs, made in Shanghai with LFP batteries, to China to continue to capture market share.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">In the wake of the G20 meeting, there is also talk that Saudi Arabia wants to push crude oil prices up to $100 per barrel. Right now, global supply and demand are very fragile and any disruption, such as a Russian pipeline break or a hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico, could disrupt crude oil production and send crude oil prices up to $100. I should add that Arab light crude came close $100 per barrel last week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">After Germany\u2019s August wind power auction only offered to develop 1.4 gigawatts of electricity, down from 1.6 gigawatts at its July auction, Britain failed to attract any bids on its latest offshore wind auction.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">Naturally, this is a massive setback for countries like Britain and Germany, which are striving to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2050. Britain\u2019s Ed Miliband, commonly referred to ad Labor\u2019s \u201cshadow climate secretary,\u201d said that failing to secure any new offshore wind generating capacity is an \u201cenergy security disaster.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">The fact of the matter is that bidding on offshore wind projects remains weak, since the economics of wind energy are erratic, especially if there is a winter cold snap that damages wind turbines.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">It appears that the \u2018green police\u2019 were not happy with the recent G20 meeting in India, since the <em>Financial Times<\/em> said that G20 leaders were \u201cmissing in action\u201d on a timeline for ending fossil fuel use.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">The G20 nations account for about 80% of the world\u2019s greenhouse gas emissions. They did agree on a goal to triple renewable energy sources by 2030, but as Britain and Germany\u2019s wind auctions demonstrated, there is no reliable economic model to boost wind production, so the G20 may might not be able to meet such goals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">Other technologies will certainly be feasible in future decades, such as satellites with massive solar sails that will be able to transmit solar energy from space, but we might also have to still use fossil fuels by then. Confused? We all are, since the planet, climate and space are all complex systems.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">The Latest News from China and Europe<\/h4>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">China\u2019s industrial production rose 4.5% in August and was clearly boosted by higher vehicle production for export markets. The other surprising news from China was that retail sales rose 4.6% in August and were apparently aided by the summer travel season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">Although some economic reports are not always reliable from China, economists were not questioning the data on industrial production and retail sales.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">The big news from the G20 was that Italian Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, privately signaled that Italy is planning to exit the \u201cBelt &amp; Road\u201d Initiative with China, which is a global infrastructure pact.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">Due to the fact that Chinese President Xi Jinping missed the G20, there were plenty of rumblings that China is disengaging with the world. President Joe Biden said that China will not be invading Taiwan any time soon, since President Xi Jinping has to solve his domestic problems, like high youth unemployment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">Inflation in the eurozone has dropped dramatically from a peak of 10.6% last year to 5.3% in August, but last Thursday, the European Central Bank (ECB) signaled that its continuing fight against inflation is more important than stimulating economic growth, since it raised its key interest rate 0.25% to 4%, the highest level in the 25-year history of the common European currency.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">Food and energy inflation in the eurozone are much more acute than in the U.S., but there is little their central banks can do to combat food and energy inflation, so I think the ECB may have made a mistake with its latest rate increase.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">The economies of Italy and Germany are based largely on exports, and due to China\u2019s recent economic woes, they are contracting this quarter and will likely drag the entire eurozone into a recession.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\">This euro rate increase will make that outcome more likely, so Europe is sinking into a recession while China seems to be avoiding a recession, although you can never know how far Beijing can kick that can down the road.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall-full-content invisible no-summary-bullets\"><em>Navellier &amp; Associates owns Ford Motor Co.
