| Topic | Wall Street's Five CEOs Get Biggest Payday Since 2006 |
| SK8T3R215 02/18/18 12:43:30 PM #1 | Wall Street CEOs are getting paid the big bucks again. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Citigroup Inc. said Friday that they gave their CEOs raises for 2017, meaning all five large U.S. banks with significant trading and investment-banking operations have done so. The chief executives of the banks, which include JPMorgan Chase & Co., Bank of America Corp., and Morgan Stanley, were paid on average $25.3 million for their work last year, up 17% from 2016, according to filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. For the group as a whole, combined total compensation of about $126 million is the highest annual tally since before the financial crisis. The gains mark the fifth consecutive year in which pay rose for Wall Streets top CEOs. In 2017, the increases reflected stronger profits for banks driven by a growing economy, rising employment, loosening regulations under President Donald Trump and an improving interest-rate backdrop for lending. Citigroup was the latest to report that it was increasing the bosss compensation. CEO Michael Corbat was paid $23 million for his work in 2017, up 48% from his $15.5 million payday in 2016. Goldman Chairman and CEO Lloyd Blankfein was awarded a $24 million pay package, up 9% from the prior year. Most of the annual compensation announced over the past month at the nations largest banks comes in the form of incentive bonuses, often stock-based and not cashed until later. And all the pay packages still pale in comparison to Mr. Blankfeins $68.5 million award for 2007 when trading profits and risk-taking drove results for Goldman and its peers. Still, this bonus season for Wall Street CEOs is in many ways the best in more than a decade. All five CEOs were awarded at least $20 million, something that hasnt happened since 2006, according to a Wall Street Journal review of banks proxy statements. Mr. Corbat, Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan and Morgan Stanley chief James Gorman each enjoyed their best annual pay packages as chief executive. Mr. Blankfein received a cash salary of $2 millionsteady from 2016, when he got a pay cutplus a cash bonus of $4.4 million and the remainder in stock units whose value will depend on how Goldman does over the next few years, according to a regulatory filing Friday. That puts him in the middle of the pack among Wall Street chiefs. JPMorgan Chase & Co.s James Dimon got a 5% raise to $29.5 million. Mr. Gorman followed at $27 million after a 20% pay raise, while Wells Fargo & Co., which doesnt have a large Wall Street presence, hasnt yet disclosed its CEOs compensation. Goldmans revenue in 2017 rose 5%. Setting aside the impact of a hit from the recently passed tax-overhaul law, its return on equity was 10.8%, one of only two banks to crack double digits. Citigroup posted a loss of $6.2 billion for 2017, though that was because of a one-time charge the bank had to take to prepare for the new tax law. The board said it had considered Citigroups underlying results, as well as the banks increased shareholder dividends and its passing grade on the Federal Reserves stress test. It has been a long road for Mr. Corbat to crack the $20 million pay mark. For his first full year as CEO, 2013, he was awarded $14.5 million. The following three years, his pay wavered between $13 million and $16.5 million, as Citigroup struggled to increase profitability and break out of past regulatory problems. For his work in 2017, Mr. Corbat is getting a cash bonus of $6.45 million, to go along with his $1.5 million salary. The rest of the package comprises stock that is dependent on the banks performance. Last year, Citigroups board cut his pay because of the firms performance relative to its financial targets. This year, the board said Mr. Corbat had demonstrated exceptional leadership in multiple critical areas, including risk management and talent management. --- New York Knicks, New York Jets, New York Yankees. |

For the $4,000 deductible plan, premiums would range from $89.91 to $242.79 for a 21-year-old, compared with $237.60 for a comparable plan on the exchange. Premiums for a family of four ages 8, 12, 30 and 39 range from $435.58 to $1,176.24, compared with $933.05 for a comparable exchange plan. http://amp.idahostatesman.com/news/politics-government/state-politics/article199999234.html I mean if people want to take these plans they could save a lot on premiums. --- New York Knicks, New York Jets, New York Yankees. |

| Topic | U.S. Consumer Prices Rose 0.5% in January, Up 2.1% On Year |
| SK8T3R215 02/14/18 9:20:39 AM #1 | U.S. consumer prices rose more than expected in January, a further sign inflation is firming after a long run of softness. The consumer-price index, which measures what Americans pay for everything from salad dressing to fares on public transportation, rose 0.5% in January after rising a seasonally adjusted 0.2% in December, the Labor Department said Wednesday. Excluding the volatile food and energy categories, so-called core prices rose 0.3%, compared to 0.2% in December. Economists surveyed by The Wall Street Journal expected consumer prices to rise 0.4% in January, and core prices to rise 0.2%. In the 12 months to January, overall prices rose 2.1%, matching the same annual increase as in December. Core prices were up 1.8% on the year. Economists had expected a 1.9% increase in overall inflation and core prices to rise 1.7%. The increase in inflation last month was largely driven by higher prices for gasoline, shelter costs like rent, medical care, food and apparel. Wednesdays report showed wage inflation was broadly muted. Real average weekly earnings fell a seasonally adjusted 0.8% in January and were up 0.4% from January 2017. The report showed overall inflationary pressures are intensifying, and it comes five weeks before Federal Reserve officials next scheduled policy meeting in Washington on March 20-21. Central bank officials have been monitoring the inflation picture closely, looking for signs that a tightening labor market and continued economic growth are generating stronger wage and price increases after years of weak inflation. The reading will likely come under close scrutiny from market participants, after a separate Labor Department report earlier this month signaling rising U.S. wages spooked global markets. The S&P 500 and the Dow remain on pace for their worst month since August 2015despite gains in the last three sessionswhile the Nasdaq faces its biggest monthly decline since January 2016. The indexes are off about 7% from their Jan. 26 highs. Given the recent roller coaster ride in equities was sparked in good part by inflation fears accelerating rate hikes, the latest inflation data will be seen as increasingly important and telling, to date, Lindsey M. Piegza, chief economist at Stifel Economics, said in a note to clients ahead of the CPI release. The data come as central-bank officials mull whether to next raise short-term interest rates from their current range between 1.25% and 1.5% at their coming March meeting. Fed policy makers in December penciled in three rate increases this year. Wednesdays report showed an index of energy prices rose 3.0% in January from the prior month, led by a seasonally adjusted 5.7% rise in gasoline costs. The price index for transportation services rose 0.8%. Apparel prices reversed three prior months of declines, rising 1.7% on the month. Taking the seasonal-adjustment changes into account, the consumer-price index data look a little softer over the most recent few months, JPMorgan Chase economist Daniel Silver said in a note to clients last week, adding however that the broader narrative on core inflation is unchanged following the recent revision to the CPI data. Economist Stephen Stanley of Amherst Pierpoint Securities cautioned ahead of the release that there was a lot of statistical noise surrounding this set of figures. Yes, inflation is likely to accelerate in 2018, and, yes, this would be one of the key developments for the economy and particularly for the Fed, but surprises on inflation tend to be measured in basis points most of the time, and the inflation story is probably going to play out quite slowly, he said in a note to clients Tuesday. https://www.wsj.com/articles/u-s-consumer-prices-rose-0-5-in-january-up-2-1-on-year-1518615115 --- New York Knicks, New York Jets, New York Yankees. |
