Inflation data released the Fed's interest rate cut in December, but it lit up a yellow light for next year. The latest inflation data may make the Fed more cautious about the pace of interest rate cut, but not now. The latest report shows that inflation in the United States in November was in line with expectations, so investors still generally expect the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates by 25 basis points next week. However, stubborn price pressure also confirms the concern that the progress towards the Fed's 2% target may stagnate. This concern may prompt officials to be more restrained in predicting the number of interest rate cuts in 2025, while waiting for more evidence that inflation will steadily reach the target. Fed policymakers will release new forecasts and interest rate outlook at the end of the policy meeting in Washington on December 17-18. "I think they can safely cut interest rates by 25 basis points in December. The market is ready for this, "said Loretta Mester, former president of Cleveland Federal Reserve Bank. "However, they must reconsider next year, because now it seems that the progress of inflation has really stagnated."Trump's NASA candidate called his future SpaceX mission a "question mark".

The bank will make a profit to open a personal pension account. "You can get a shopping reduction when you open an account!" Recently, an employee of a big bank said that near the end of the year, the bank's marketing efforts for individual pension accounts have increased significantly. In addition to shopping coupons, tax relief, etc., some institutions even sent "opening an account to send gold" benefits, which is full of eye-catching effects. Since the trial operation, the personal pension system has developed for two years, and the related wealth management products and the number of accounts opened have continued to increase, but the "cold deposit" is still in sharp contrast with the "hot account opening". Insiders suggest that residents' willingness to invest after opening an account can be enhanced by enriching the product system and adjusting the withdrawal system. On December 11th, a person familiar with the matter revealed that a number of commercial banks have recently been informed that the relevant departments will hold a video conference on the full implementation of the personal pension system in the middle of this month, or it is related to the full expansion of the implementation scope of the personal pension system-"fully opening the gate" is ready to come.

The central government has decided to adjust the fiscal policy for next year: increase the deficit, special national debt and special debt quota. According to CCTV news broadcast, the Central Economic Work Conference was held in Beijing from December 11th to 12th. When deploying the fiscal policy for next year, the meeting said that it is necessary to implement a more active fiscal policy, improve the fiscal deficit ratio, increase the issuance of ultra-long-term special government bonds, increase the issuance and use of local government special bonds, optimize the fiscal expenditure structure, and firmly grasp the bottom line of "three guarantees" at the grassroots level. According to the above-mentioned meeting arrangements, in 2025, deficit ratio will exceed 3%, ultra-long-term special national debt will exceed 1 trillion yuan, and the amount of new special debt will also exceed 3.9 trillion yuan. This means that fiscal policy will be more active next year. This is also in line with market expectations. A number of interviewed finance and taxation experts predict that deficit ratio may be 3.5%~4% next year, the ultra-long-term special national debt is expected to be 1.5 trillion yuan to 2 trillion yuan, and the amount of special debt is expected to be around 4.5 trillion yuan. Of course, this is only an expert's prediction or suggestion, and the final actual relevant data still needs to be announced during the National People's Congress in March next year.
