Oil Prices And Inflation Expectations: Is There A Link?
by St Louis Fed
– this post authored by Alejandro Badel and Joseph McGillicuddy
Between January 2011 and June 2014, Brent crude oil prices fluctuated around an average price level of $110 per barrel. Between June 2014 and January 2015, oil prices dropped precipitously, stabilizing at about $55 per barrel. This pattern was accompanied by a reduction in breakeven inflation expectations, which, in the case of the five-year forward rate, dropped from 2 percent at the end of June 2014 to 1.30 percent at the beginning of January 2015.[1] Since then, the five-year breakeven inflation rate has increased steadily, reaching 1.72 percent by the end of April.
