Fed and NFP preview: GDP, inflation, XAU, WTI, Fed Funds

GDP and Inflation are the same lines and with only slight deviations between both. The 13 Year average before the last release ran Inlation at 2.62 Vs GDP at 2.27. Inflation over last 5 to 13 years trades above GDP or at low spreads. 

Inflation is the driving line to anticipate GDP. GDP must trade above Inflation in order for economies to run positive and growth oriented. Exports are the assistants to higher GDP.

GDP Vs Inflation runs a 13 year Correlation at +23%. For the 2 year average GDP = 3.04 Vs Inflation at 3.38. Slight changes exist due to the last GDP report at 1%.  The 5 year average runs GDP at 3.84 Vs Inflation at 6.4.

GDP could rise 2 and 3 points but the rise is meaningless to Inflation at 6.4. Inflation averages run 3.47, 4.05, 4.58, 5.47, 5.72. GDP must break at minimum 3.47.
