It would lead to depreciation as higher prices mean lower competitiveness. Conversely, higher inflation causes higher interest rates and a tighter monetary policy that leads to an appreciation.

The NY Fed 1-Year Consumer Inflation Expectations is an economic event that measures the anticipated inflation rate in the United States over the next 12 months. This data is derived from the Survey of Consumer Expectations conducted by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The survey provides information on consumer attitudes towards inflation, which can be an important factor in shaping economic policies and financial market trends.

A higher than expected inflation rate can be concerning for investors, as it may lead to the Federal Reserve increasing interest rates to combat rising prices, which can have an impact on consumer spending and investments. Conversely, a lower than expected inflation rate may indicate a sluggish economy, potentially leading to policy makers adopting a more accommodative stance to stimulate economic growth. The NY Fed 1-Year Consumer Inflation Expectations therefore serves as a valuable indicator of consumer sentiment and potential future policy actions by the Federal Reserve.

M3 Money Supply measures the total quantity of domestic currency in circulation and deposited in banks. An increasing supply of money leads to additional spending, which in turn leads to inflation.

Monetary aggregates, known also as "money supply", is the quantity of currency available within the economy to purchase goods and services. Depending on the degree of liquidity chosen to define an asset as money, various monetary aggregates are distinguished: M0, M1, M2, M3, M4, etc. Not all of them are used by every country. Note that methodology of calculating money supply varies between countries. M2 is a monetary aggregate that includes all physical currency circulating in the economy (banknotes and coins), operational deposits in central bank, money in current accounts, saving accounts, money market deposits and small certificates of deposit. Excess money supply growth potentially can cause inflation and generate fears that the government may tighten money growth by allowing the interest rates to rise which in turn, lowers future prices. M2 = Currency in circulation + demand deposits (private sector) + time and savings deposits (private sector).
