75 bps is certain. Wonder if Powell goes for 100.

I still don't believe it's only 8.3%.
My personal costs are up over 10%. We got a list of vendor price increases at work and they were averaging around 15% |

Remember, this is after a 5.3% year over year rate in 2021 for August. We are now over a year into large inflation numbers. Combine 2021 and now 2022

Perhaps you should look at the inflation rate in Canada, the UK, and the EU zone. This is not a U.S. only phenomena.

Each and every one of their leaders used the exact term "Build Back Better" to encompass a wide range of inflationary socialist policies. |

Prices didn't go up meaningfully compared to last month but are still high relative to this time last year. I think everyone was hoping that prices would actually go down, not just stay basically level thus the market's disappointment. |

View Quote I genuinely still hope he goes for 400+ points. Overnight. Unexpectedly. Lay it on us. Pain now in a controlled manner or unfathomable pain later as hyperinflation takes hold. Now or never buddy. Now or never. |

Much higher.
Did they change the definition of inflation or CPI under Biden? Geez. |
|
Didn't Brandon and Congress just pass a massive bill to lower inflation?
Guess it just takes time for it to work through the economy. |

Maybe they were hopeful that the rate of increase would slow but lower prices are a fucking pipe dream. |

View Quote Grocery store food is genuinely wild. Some restaurants are in the eye of the storm (likely liquor sales covering food price increases for a little longer). |

View Quote Well, there a you go. Erbody know you back food and energy. Nobody buys that shit. |

I wonder how much the CPI dropped for oil last time because states stopped collecting taxes on it. That's about $0.30-40/gal right there.

And all this inflation despite having drawn down the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to its lowest level EVER.

From the BLS website:
"The index for all items less food and energy rose 0.6 percent in August after increasing 0.3 percent in July." yikes |

This is what the start of stagflation looks like.
What’s coming next will be epic. Millennials are going to be even more pissed off and biter than they already are. |

Falling gas prices helped "pad" the overall number but the Core CPI which is one of the metrics the Fed heavily watches rose more than the headline number they announced. They did an immediate 11 basis point spike after the meeting this morning ended and there is still an anticipated 75 point hike coming at the next meeting. So we're looking at at least 86 points upcoming to Fed rates with another 75 points being forecasted towards the end of year meeting in November.
Gonna be shaky for a little while longer and while people feel the "immediate effect" of falling gas prices overall inflation is still rising and the economy is on shaky ground alongside most of the rest of the world currently. |
