Traders await the December Consumer Price Index will provide fresh insights into inflation&#8217;s trajectory, potentially influencing the Federal Reserve's policy stance amid mounting uncertainty over interest rates.
The headline inflation rate is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/42988894/all-eyes-on-december-inflation-betting-odds-signal-risk-of-fed-struggling-to-tame">projected </a>to rise 2.9% year-over-year, according to TradingEconomics, marking an increase from November&#8217;s 2.7% pace.

Insights From Analysts
Howard Marks, a veteran investor who accurately predicted the dot-com bubble, warns of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/42995814/billionaire-investor-who-predicted-the-dot-com-crash-25-years-ago-warns-of-another-market-storm-brewing-in-the-us">potential market risks</a> in his latest memo, &#8220;On Bubble Watch.&#8221; 
Marks highlights several concerning signs:
<ul>
<li>Over-optimism: High market exuberance and elevated S&amp;P 500 valuations.</li>
<li>AI Hype: Excessive enthusiasm for AI may be inflating valuations in the tech sector.</li>
<li>Magnificent 7 Reliance: Over-reliance on the continued success of a small group of dominant tech companies.</li>
<li>Index Investing Bias: Index fund inflows may be driving up prices regardless of intrinsic value.</li>
</ul>
While not definitively declaring a bubble, the co-founder and co-chairman of Oaktree Capital Management, Marks stresses the importance of acknowledging these risks. He acknowledges counterarguments, such as reasonable valuations for the &#8220;Magnificent Seven&#8221; and a moderate P/E ratio for the S&amp;P 500.
Ultimately, Marks concludes that the market may be expensive and slightly overheated, but it doesn&#8217;t yet display the irrational exuberance typical of a true bubble.
&#8220;The markets are likely to remain listless until Monday&#8217;s Inauguration Day, when President Donald Trump is expected to issue numerous Executive Orders which might muddy rather than clarify the economic outlook,&#8221; said Ed Yardeni of Yardeni Research in his QuickTakes.
Carson Research in their 2025 markets outlook, released on Tuesday said that they expect U.S. growth likely to outpace other global economies this year. They expect a 12-15% return from stocks.
&#8220;Looking at forward 12-month S&amp;P 500 earnings we once again see new highs, now at $271 per share, up from $225 in early 2023,&#8221; the report said.
&#8220;We are overweight equities and believe current forward earnings growth expectations remain supportive of stock gains given the economic backdrop.&#8221;
