This Economy isn't Good - Jan-26 Core Inf @ 3.1% / 4Q25 GDP revised down / jobs declining

The latest revision showing U.S. GDP growth slowing to just 0.7% in Q4 highlights how quickly economic momentum faded at the end of 2025. Inflation also remains sticky, with core prices around 3.1%, and rising oil prices tied to the Iran war could add additional upward pressure on energy and transportation costs. If energy prices stay elevated, those costs could ripple through the broader economy and increase the risk of stagflation. With growth slowing and the labor market beginning to cool, the Federal Reserve may face an increasingly difficult path balancing economic support with controlling inflation.

Headline PCE inflation for January increased by 0.3% month-over-month and increased 0.1% to 2.9% year-over-year, in line with expectations. Core PCE increased by 0.4% month-over-month and increased 0.1% to 3.1% year-over-year, also matching estimates
Truflation has us at 1.47%
Still need to cut at least 1%
Cant wait for Jerome to be gone

maybe having Dems shut the govt down for half the quarter didn't help

I think we have all have become immune to revisions.
My give a darn is gone, as they really just make up numbers at this point.
Is the economy good, no. Is it ever as bad as they make it sound, no.
AI is having zero impact in the workforce, it is just an excuse companies are using to trim fat and over-hiring.
Tariffs were not near the drama our panicans predicted.
Globalist are the only true issue right now trying to tank the economy.

4th qtr GDP was dramatically affected by the government shutdown. Dont be fooled.
The tax cuts, outside investment, reduction in regulations, and increase in tax deductions are about to start showing up. Thats why before the war started the stock market was hitting records. It will again right after it ends. GDP should be close to 5% this year.
