New Inflation Data Is Worse Than You Think

[leftwinger]

Stain actually believed it when they said in 2021 "we have to increase spending to save money". Wildsabeast much?

 

[leftwinger]

Spending it on what? to accomplish what? AND THE BIG QUESTION, When? Is it just hopeful talk, for something later?
is one person rule the goal?

Making I-phone screens partnered with Corning in TX? All the good PCB & Assy stays with China India for now under DEMKKK slave labor camps.

Almost as-if APPL threw Trump a bone and he fell for it? Hope this changes going forward.

But doesn't the article say they excluded food? The one I read on CNBC did.

They have the number with or without food and energy. It is .9 with food; .6 without

Most importers, in anticipation of Trump's tax hikes, frontloaded their import orders before those tariffs could kick in. This has resulted in a short-term delay in the cost of those tax hikes being passed on to all of us.

Now their frontloaded imports are depleted and they are suffering under the highest tax hike since 1933.


Sadly, the bulk of this massive tax hike fell on the middle class small businesses who are 97 percent of our importers.

And you, the consumer, are literally paying the price.

Wholesale prices rose 0.9% in July, much more than expected​

“The fact that PPI was stronger-than-expected and CPI has been relatively soft suggests that businesses are eating much of the tariff costs instead of passing them onto the consumer,” said Clark Geranen, chief market strategist at CalBay Investments. “Businesses may soon start to reverse course and start passing these costs to consumers.”

May?

May soon reverse course?

They already have.

Any mom who is doing back-to-school shopping is already seeing higher prices for their children's school clothes because of Trump's tariffs.

Higher Clothing Prices Are Officially Here​

All higher.

If you have found yourself echoing Trump's bragging about tariff revenue, I hope you all realize that came out of YOUR pocket.

That's something which the MAGA cult just can't seem to get through their hivemind.

TARIFFS ARE TAXES ON AMERICANS.

New York liberal Democrat Donald Trump has burdened you with the highest import taxes since 1933.

1933. When another lying New York Democrat was in the White House.

This is emptying your wallets and your purses, but thank GOD Trump gave himself and his cronies a tax break! They really needed it!

"YEAHBUT BIDEN!"

SQUIRREL!

One blip in the on-going 100yr chart far below recent highs is noticeable but not that meaningful yet.

However if it continues to appear and becomes a trend.......then prices of goods could rise also.//

 

[g5000]

Of course, being deep inside the Reality Distortion Field, the MAGA cult's Trump worship will override their higher grocery and clothing bills.

They will call today's reality, "fake news". Literally.

Amazing, isn't it?

"YEAHBUT BIDEN!"

I saw an ad a moment ago where a case of coke is over $10 a case.

The fact is that tariffs are unwarranted and generally useless, a needless risk to the economy.

Especially if you want cheap shit and very limited manufacturing base.

Goes to taxes to run the country.

 

[Donald H]

I would expect other countries to diversify foreign trade relations, and then if Trump's tariff attempts are lasting, they won't go back to the US.

Canada is making permanent moves to diversify. We can see it happening in the grocery stores.

 

[rightwinger]

Tariffs are just taking hold

Prepare for the worst

 

[pknopp]

The sad part is when Trump goes away thr Democrats are unlikely to roll back the tax hikes and even if they did, business isnt going to roll back the prices.

That door was shut when the self proclaimed geniuses of the Democratic Party let the inflation genies out of the bottle. Progs agendas supersedes anything. Trum made promises to lower prices. He deserve the chance.

Been $2.50- $3.50 a 2 liter bottle for several years.

You calling a case a12 pack?

Wake me up when inflation hits double digit under Trump like we experienced under Biden.

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. inflation was unchanged in July as rising prices for some imported goods were balanced by falling gas and grocery prices, leaving overall prices modestly higher than a year ago.

 

[drudge X]

Tariffs are just taking hold

Prepare for the worst

Yes of course, same old shit since last year.

 

[jc456]

I remember when the Democrats said the same thing during the Biden admin.

hard to fathom when inflation is 9.1%. Not so at 2%

 

[jc456]

and the demofks didn't say word one against it. Inconsistent demofks.

 

[rightwinger]

Biden got inflation down to under 3 percent
Trump policies are increasing it
