Because of the trucker boycott of New York loads are costing $2000 more. This is going to have a big inflationary impact on the city.

But the white hut says: White House: Inflation ‘Very Close to Normal’ and Prices ‘Moving in the Right Direction’ — But They’ll Go Up

Inquiring minds want to know which is right? As if we didn't know.

During an interview with ABC News on Thursday, White House Senior Adviser Gene Sperling stated that “people have been through a tough few years” but the PCE (Personal Consumption Expenditures) price index reading is “very close to normal” and “prices are moving in the right direction” and “moderating.” But you can’t expect them to not go up.

Well, this might keep The Fed talking heads up at night.

Misdirection. The Fed won't resume hiking rates and lowering their balance sheet until after the election.

The 4-week T-bill rate edged up very, very slightly with my recent rollover. We’re talking a couple hundredths at most.

Better than going down (for investment purposes, that is).

Number one question: Why is the FED touching rates in the first place. It is not their job.
