Ray Dalio in feud with neighbor over Soho penthouse project
What is he, some kinda wiseguy? That’s what Federico Pignatelli della Leonessa wants to know about hedge fund titan Ray Dalio, according to the New York Times. The neighbors are facing off over Dalio’s right to build a penthouse, deck and pergola rising up to 15 feet over the rooftop at 260 West Broadway in the SoHo-Cast Iron Historic District Extension. The project is above a sixth-floor apartment the billionaire hedge fund legend’s family has lived for years. Pignatelli, who lives next door, claims the weight of the structure is crushing his apartment and construction has endangered the structural integrity ... (full story)

Do you think high inflation can persist? The outlook for inflation is very uncertain, but we are currently seeing second-round effects. Energy prices have trickled down to other items in the “shopping basket”. Core inflation is currently our main concern and it is not yet showing signs of slowing down, especially in the services sector. Admittedly, manufacturing activity seems to be shrinking. But so far we are not seeing a slowdown in the services sector. Most services are labor intensive and wage developments are clearly one of the main upside risks to the inflation outlook.

I am delighted to be at the Peterson Institute here in Washington DC today. I will talk today about the UK economy and monetary policy, with some comparison to the US and euro area. Let me summarise my main points at the outset. 1. My reading of official UK inflation data is that the contribution of rising business profits to recent inflation is small. 2. Looking forward, the labour market is still very tight in an absolute sense: for example, the vacancies-to-unemployment ratio remains historically very high, as does unit wage growth. 3. I prefer to lean against the risks of inflation momentum. As difficult as the economy’s current conditions are, embedded inflation would be worse. Further increases in Bank rate cannot be ruled out. Inflation in the UK: costly energy and a tight labour market Since this is an international audience, let me start by giving you a quick overview of the UK inflation environment. The headline measure of inflation in the UK, the Consumer Price Index (CPI), has risen 8.7% in the year to April 2023. This is down from its recent peak of 11.1% in December 2022, which was the highest on record since the CPI officially began in 1988. Historic modelled estimates from the UK Office for National Statistics (ONS) suggest that inflation in the UK was last higher in February 1982. The current high inflation in the UK is due to a range of factors, which we explore shortly. Chart 1 shows inflation “component accounting”. Based on the components of the CPI basket, services and energy were each accounting for about 3pp of inflation in the early part of this year, with ‘food and non-alcoholic beverages’ and ‘other go post at 12:32pm: BOE'S HASKEL: FURTHER RATE HIKES CAN'T BE RULED OUT. post at 12:31pm: BOE'S HASKEL: I PREFER TO LEAN AGAINST RISKS OF INFLATION. post at 12:32pm: BOE'S HASKEL: THE LABOR MARKET IS STILL VERY TIGHT IN THE UK. post at 12:33pm: BOE'S HASKEL: AS DIFFICULT AS OUR CURRENT CIRCUMSTANCES ARE, EMBEDDED INFLATION WOULD BE WORSE.
