Odaily Planet Daily reports that BeiChen Lin, a senior investment strategist at Russell Investments, stated in a report that the U.S. labor and real estate markets do not appear to be overheating. "Over time, this combination should help alleviate inflation, but progress against inflation may still be somewhat rocky," he said. Despite recent surveys showing increased consumer concern about inflation, it is encouraging that the 5Y5Y Inflation Swap Rate (a market-based medium-term measure of inflation) remains fairly close to 2%. According to a WSJ survey of analysts before Wednesday's release of February CPI data, it is expected that both overall and core readings will show some slowdown.
