Key points:

• The consumer price index increased 0.1% for the month, putting the annual inflation rate at 2.4%.
• Excluding food and energy, core CPI came in respectively at 0.1% and 2.8%, compared with forecasts for 0.3% and 2.9%.

So... where's the massive jump in inflation promised by the left?
Why were you wrong?
Or did you just hope inflation would skyrocket due to the tariffs, giving you something to wag a finger at?

"not as bad as we expected" is the new tRump slogan.

Pathetic.

Look at you, desperately trying to spin 2.4% inflation as bad news.

Pretty darn good numbers, great numbers when you pull housing out.

The fed needs to get with the program and lower interest rates by at least two basis points to get housing more in line.

Housing and rent is a millstone right now.....Of course the dems opening our borders and allowing millions to cross will do that.

.1%....suck on it darling.

Wow, that's almost the same as tRump's margin of victory, but that's a "landslide".

My, we are butthurt about great news for the country. Fancy that.

YOu know they changed the way they figure it just to give you this "good news".

And even with that they couldn't actually get it to go positive.

 

[M14 Shooter]

Why not?

Because most people do not openly lie to themselves.
You are an obvious exception.

See?
Lying to yourself.
Back on ignore.

Given your math, you must be black. To wit; 0.1 positive, -0.1 negative.

ORANGEMANBAD!!! ORANGEMANBAD!!!

What was a landslide is with the Electoral College, AND the fact that Harris
couldn't win ONE battleground state.
There is your landslide, darling.

Was that before or after Biden's 9% inflation.

Farmers need lower interest rates. Car buyers need lower interest rates. We all need lower interest rates. So why isn't the Fed lowering them?

America's swing to the right in 2024 was wide, if not always deep

Trump gained ground in every state and most counties in the 2024 election compared to 2020.

Recent story said the Fed is likely to start dropping in September.
