UPDATE 1-U.S. shale producers to remain on sidelines if OPEC+ cuts output
A big oil production cut by OPEC+ members will not spur new U.S. oil and gas production, energy executives told Reuters, despite the likely rise in prices that could signal higher profits and inflation pressures. The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies, called OPEC+, meets on Wednesday to consider output cuts that could exceed 1 million barrels per day, the largest since the 2020 pandemic-driven market crash. A hefty cut will show the extent to which OPEC+ has regained control of oil markets and increase pressure on U.S. President Joe Biden to respond to rising fuel prices.

With over 8% inflation and the Federal Reserve raising interest rates multiple times, the mREIT group has been trounced. Many mREITs are still maintaining dividends without cuts, and with the substantial price declines this year, many of these stocks are now paying high single-digit and even double-digit dividend yields. But what do analysts think about the future

Fed determined to fix ‘problematic’ inflation, Daly says
What the Fed does see, she said, is that “inflation is problematic, and we are committed to restoring price stability” by raising rates further.

Global stock markets have gyrated as investors try to calibrate when the Fed’s rate hikes could end, and policymakers like Daly have stuck firmly to their message that the tightening will only end when inflation comes down.
