March 12 (UPI) -- February inflation measured by the Consumer Price Index Wednesday was 2.8% annually and was up a lower than expected 0.2% for the month, seasonally adjusted.
"The index for shelter rose 0.3% in February, accounting for nearly half of the monthly all items increase," the Bureau of Labor Statistics said in a statement. "The shelter increase was partially offset by a 4.0% decrease in the index for airline fares and a 1.0% percent decline in the index for gasoline."
Meh, not great, not bad....Steady Eddy.
Not quite the gloom-n-doom some here were predicting.
Deflect? This is what I was responding to: “It's good people are being more cautious with their money. Maybe they can pay down the highest ever CC debt they racked-up under FJB.”OK, so all you can do is deflect....SOP for your ilk I guess.
Spending is down because they fear an economic collapse genius. Fuck you guys are stupid.
So Canada and Europe aren't tariffing us?
Inflation down. Egg prices down. Gasoline prices down. Illegal immigration stopped. Promise made, promises kept. Good job, Mr. President!Inflation is climbing.
So much for the Day 1 promises.
Price of eggs is climbing too.
I love how you spin it. If egg prices go from $2 a carton to $10 then go down to $5, you didn't lower the price of eggs dipshit. You're being duped. That's called inflation baby.
a dozen Grade A eggs cost an average of $5.90 in U.S. cities in February, up 10.4% from a year ago. That eclipsed January’s record-high price of $4.95.
U.S. economic output will contract by an annualized rate of -2.4% in 2025's first quarter
What is Trump doing to us?
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump on Thursday threatened a 200% tariff on European wine, champagne and spirits if the European Union goes forward with a planned tariff on American whiskey.
The European tariff, which was unveiled in response to steel and aluminum tariffs by the U.S. administration, was expected to go into effect on April 1.

What a little bitch Trump is. Starting fights he shouldn't have started and losing the fight.
So?
He specifically said He was going to institute tariffs many times during His campaign and stated why.
Who says He's losing this fight?
It's causing inflation and hurting Americans. For what? Who's going to benefit from what Trump's doing? We have trading partners. What's unfair about our trade agreements? Do you even know? Do we really want to start manufacturing EVERYTHING here in America? Then stop picking on our trade partners. And suckin up to Putin
OTTAWA — Canada’s retaliatory tariffs will target Republican states and Donald Trump allies.
There are 1,256 items in the first tranche of tariffs that will come into force Tuesday.
The list includes oranges and fruit from Florida, home to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort; household appliances from South Carolina and Ohio, states to Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and Vice President J.D. Vance; and motorcycles and coffee from southern Pennsylvania, which helped return Trump to the White House.
The full list, which you can read here, contains food and agriculture products, textiles and furniture.

Inflation isn’t down, it’s up from were he inherited it.
Egg prices down? Fuckup hilarious
Gas prices are down? Fuckup where?
You look into that?
Musk lost $148 billion of that.
Bezos $29bn
Brin $20bn
Zuck $5bn
On the market...... they'll get it back.
You can never get back what you lost. If I take your $1 million down to $100K and in 10 years it goes back to $1 million, you got fucked you retard. You were hoping to get 10% on your million, over 10 years, compounding interest.
Were you this optimistic on Biden's watch? No you were not. LOL.
Did you see Dollar Stores are converting to $5 stores? So inflation isn't going down.

How much did you rack up?
Oh no................started on day one?
Egg prices have fallen sharply so far in March on some progress in ending a shortage, giving consumers some much-needed relief with the supermarket staple.
The cost of white large shell eggs declined to $6.85 per dozen, on average, last week, according to data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. That represents a decline of $1.20 per dozen, and a 15% pull back the USDA’s prior update on Feb. 28.

My my.........that's not one of the first things they tell you investing in a 401.....fluctuation is part of the game.
Yes
You just hit it out of the park.....
The hope is that February’s results will signal a new positive trend — and put an end to an old negative one. Inflation, which hit 9.1% on an annual basis in June 2022, gradually fell all the way to 2.4% last September. But then it started to rise again — 2.6% in October, 2.7% in November, 2.9% in December, and 3% in January. Now — cross your fingers — with the decline to 2.8%, the hope is that what appeared to be a second coming of inflation during the Biden years has stopped.

And the Stock Market.
What a convenient thing to NOT mention.
How did the stock markets react during Trump's tariffs with China in His first presidency?
