BONDS, STOCKS, & BULLION BID AS COMPLACENCY CAREENS BEYOND DOT-COM HIGHS
Stocks oscillated gently lower overnight then went wild as the cash markets opened, soaring all day but appeared to roll over a little when McConnell suggested slashing the liability protections and state/local aid from the COVID Relief bill (implicitly reducing the amount of free money to be handed out) and extended losses a little more when headlines on SCOTUS taking up Texas' election case against MI, PA, and WI...

DEFLATION IS BACK IN CHINA AS CPI TURNS NEGATIVE FOR FIRST TIME SINCE THE FINANCIAL CRISIS
Chinese deflation is back with a whimper as headline CPI inflation moderated to -0.5% year-on-year in November from +0.5% yoy in October, the first year-over-year decline in consumer prices since October 2009.
Yesterday, when discussing the biggest jump in Chinese FX reserves in 7 years we wondered if this was an indication that the PBOC was starting to lean against the surging yuan. Today, after the latest Chinese inflation data released moments ago, we are confident that it is only a matter of time before Beijing will once again aggressively intervene and/or devalue its currency.

Some more details: in year-on-year terms, food inflation went down to -2.0% yoy in November from +2.2% y/y in October, largely because pork prices tumbled 12.5% on a year-over-year basis, lowering year-over-year CPI inflation by 0.6pp.
One wonders how long Beijing will allow this, and how long will Chinese rates remain as high as they are, before the Politburo capitulates and realize it needs to aggressively devalued its soaring currency (and offset the tumbling dollar) if it hopes to keep deflation in check.
It may even have to decide between keeping interest rates highs, and thus yields on Chinese bonds attractive for foreign investors (as a reminder, everyone knows by now that one of Beijing's top priorities is to have a steady source of offshore capital entering the negative current account nation), or finally conceding it needs to cut rates in order to let some of the air in the yuan out.
