So you have facts? Didn't think so. Just like you just "know" that there was a stolen election. You are not a serious person.

Once again you are a clown that I cannot take serious with that response. Look at whats occurring seriously and then come back.

still transitory?

And is it still Putin's fault?

Asking for a friend.

The friend also want to know when he can buy some of Hunter's artwork. He heard it could land him a sweet job.

Got to love those gas prices. It's a shame the capital isn't there to increase domestic production. Oh well, maybe the Saudi's have forgotten Joe called the Emir a murderer and will increase production again.
Kushner has billions to invest for the Saudis. Hows that going? Hows the GOP debates shaping out? Yall might want to get your house in order.
 
I have no idea. I just know our Whole Foods delivery used to be around tree fiddy and now its around fo fiddy. Wife even suggested cutting back our wine orders this week. Lol f that.

More actionable. Just buy an EV!

We just got out Kia EV6 2 months ago and it’s the bomb. I now hate it when my wife has the Kia and I have to drive our gas-powered Mazda CX-5 (which I used to love).

The EV’s performance is sooooo much better. And I never have to pay for gas again. And with our solar panels, my cost to power my car is like 20% of what a gas powered car would be.
I now feel better knowing that you are a troll. Well done.
 
Inflation coming in hot. Interest rates will be higher for longer. rate cut for Jun is now down to 50-50. Rate cuts during election season will be frowned upon.

10 year trading up just over 4.25%

Cost of shelter is a significant contributor to the inflation. Speculation is that illegal's are pushing up housing costs.

"Speculation is that illegal's are pushing up housing costs."

Really? Holy crap man. All those illegals crossing the border and then buying up houses.

Just what CNBC said. Take it up with them i guess. I hardly ever watch them, just turned it on to see the print. Take if with a grade of slaw. That's why they said speculation i guess.

Housing prices rose under Obama and Trump and Biden, until 2023 when they started dropping.

 
CPI and PPI hotter than expected. They are trying desperately to keep inflation down but inflation it putting up a good fight.

Inflation coming in hot!

Housing specifically still coming in hot.
 
Anyone talking about the hot inflation report?

Still 2.6%

Housing up more than any other category
 
Inflation coming in hotter than expected. Certainly makes the .50pt rate cut at last meeting look political.

Bad news for Kammy.

Remember when Trump was President and it was all about the stock market and unemployment and no Republican cared about the National Debt?

Now that the Stock market is WAY up from when Trump was in office and unemployment is great, it's inflation that REALLY MATTERS. And now that inflation is actually down, we see that it's not about inflation, it's about CORE CPI inflation.

I'm actually surprised you Trumpians didn't say the inflation numbers are fake. I'd think that was a better move than the core cpi move.

Inflation is cumulative. Just because the rate of continuing increase has lessened is not a reason to be happy or say it's under control.

I see your point.

I am also a little bewildered that Democrats are not getting more credit for the economy. And it's worth thinking about a little deeper.

One theory i have is that inflation is far worse than advertised. The jobs numbers were basically fudged for a whole year. Why would they not fudge the CPI numbers?

While inflation as a whole averaged ~5.2% under Biden it was 1.9% under Trump. Additionally, the categories where inflation is hurting the people the most are necessities that people must buy. That is housing and food, and those two things have had higher than average inflation.

And that inflation can be linked directly to Ukraine and an unpopular war.

I do think it's and interesting topic though. Why haven't democrats received more credit for the record stock market and (relatively) low unemployment rate (although it's been creeping higher to normal levels the last 2-3 months)?

In 2019 (trump's third year) the inflation rate was 2.3%, then it dropped significantly when covid hit (as did gas prices). It had been lower in prior years, but trumps policies drove it up. So essentially, the inflation rate has returned to the precovid trump levels.

To answer your question as to why dems don't get more credit for the economy, its because most Americans have the equivalent of a middle school education and are stupid as ****. Mouth breathers like you will always factor in covid into trumps numbers, but never give the same courtesy to his successor.

The last three republican presidents have the left economy much worse off than they inherited it.

That is a fact and it is not up for debate.

Your boy Obama was just today taking credit for Trumps economy just yesterday.

I would say in late 2021 and early 2022 the Biden admin was totally tone deaf to inflation. First they said it was transitory. It wasn't. When they had the chance to get inflation under control, they instead tried to pass a bill that would have been massively inflationary. Joe Manchin saved them by one vote.

Biden was 'hired' to stop covid, remember? He was going to do a better job and be the adult in the room. But he failed at that massively too with many more dying under Bidens term. Essentially Biden and Harris failed in multiple ways and thus why they are not getting credit.








Comparing Trump's Term with Obama's:
Obama's Term (2009-2017):
  • 2009-2011: Following the 2008 financial crisis, the U.S. experienced deflation briefly in 2009, with negative CPI rates. After this dip, inflation started to rise but remained relatively low by historical standards.
  • 2012-2016: Inflation was generally moderate. The annual CPI increase typically hovered between 1% to 2%, aligning with the Federal Reserve's target of around 2%. There were moments of concern, such as in 2011 when oil prices spiked, but overall, inflation was kept in check.

Trump's Term (2017-2021):
  • 2017-2019: Early in Trump's term, inflation remained relatively low, similar to the end of Obama's term. The CPI increase was around 2% annually, which is considered stable. This period was marked by economic growth but without significant inflationary pressures.
  • 2020: The year was dominated by the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Initially, there was deflation due to economic shutdowns. However, by the end of 2020, inflation started to pick up due to stimulus measures and supply chain disruptions.

Comparing Trump's Term with Biden's:
Biden's Term (2021 onwards):
  • 2021: Inflation surged, partly due to pent-up demand, supply chain issues, and significant fiscal stimulus. The annual CPI increase was the highest in decades, reaching over 7% by the end of the year.
  • 2022: Inflation remained high, peaking at around 9.1% in June 2022, driven by energy prices, used car prices, and other factors. However, it began to moderate towards the end of the year.
  • 2023-2024: There's been a cooling trend, with inflation rates gradually coming down, though still above the Fed's 2% target. This period has seen aggressive monetary policy actions by the Federal Reserve to combat inflation.

Key Observations:
  • Trump vs. Obama:
    • The transition from Obama to Trump saw continuity in low inflation for the first few years. Trump's term saw initial stability followed by volatile inflation due to the global health crisis in 2020.
  • Trump vs. Biden:
    • The transition to Biden's term marked a significant increase in inflation, largely attributable to post-COVID economic rebound, supply chain issues, and policy decisions.
    • While Trump's last year showed the beginnings of inflationary pressures due to economic reopening, Biden's term experienced these pressures more acutely.
