I few weeks ago here I predicted the next rate change would be up, not down. The inflationary fire appears to be reigniting.

The “experts” explained to us that inflation was transitory.

Therefore the story cannot be true.

The “experts” said so.

This is one of those “are you going to believe me or your lying eyes” exercises... even as they were claiming inflation was under control, all of us were experiencing firsthand how prices continued to rise, and/or the product sizing/volume shrank...

The only people on the planet who would be surprised by this are the dunces in the Brandon Administration who are supposed to fix the problem.

The following was posted, not by me!) in a neighborhood online comment site in N. California

“I went to the gas station on sunday to get gas for my lawn mower and it was 4.99 a gal at the speedy station.I haven’t bought gas for a few weeks so i just chucked it up o well.”

Today Monday the 8th one day ahead i decided to wash the wife’s car and fill it up for her .the same station and the same pump 5.29 .a 30 cent a gal more in one day .

WOW .i need to get into the gas station business. i wrote a post on the school bond issue and it went crazy . what is happening to the state of california . no wonder everyone is moving out

Better buy your gas today because tomorrow it might be 6.00 a gal . Chevron is over 6.00 for supreme .

Inflation Shock: CPI Comes in Hot, Market Not Taking It Well
https://www.youtube.com/live/DLTse8UUDW4?si=GDHVH_nMaSjjAJ20

Streamed live 4 hours ago #CPI #Inflation #EndTheFed
The Consumer Price Index came in higher than expected and the initial reaction from the market is not good. Hopes of an early return to rate cuts by the Federal Reserve have been dashed.

Well, silver lining. If you can minimize inflation by shopping sales, eating out and driving less this news should keep CD, Treasuries and Money market rates up for those with any savings left to capitalize on. Of course I assume this news is part of, if not the reason, the Markets are getting hammered today. So take the good with the bad.

I buy 5# chubs of ground beef-—to make hamburger patties & freeze them-—DON’T to make a BIG POT of chili & Freeze.

Paid $12 for YEARS.

Hadn’t bought any since 9-22, when I think & paid $14. PAID $20 this AM. SAME BRAND.

Apparently the economists don’t support ‘Our Democracy’. Will they, in the future, perhaps be imprisoned with J6 protestors?
