We are so fricked LINK
quote:

A key US inflation measure due Thursday is set to return to a four-decade high, underscoring broad and elevated price pressures that are pushing the Federal Reserve toward yet another large interest-rate hike next month.
quote:

The so-called core consumer price index that excludes food and energy is projected to rise 0.4% in September from the prior month and 6.5% from a year earlier, matching the rate seen in March that was the highest since 1982. But about a third of economists in a Bloomberg survey expect a print of 6.6% or more.

The overall CPI, however, is expected to decelerate to a still-rapid 8.1% annual pace, restrained by a decline in gasoline prices, based on the median estimate.

So not only are we in recession, but the Fed has more justification for rate hikes because we still have an inflation problem.

Stagflation is back. Time for the misery index to return.

Rents Rise


I know everyone on the OT is a home-owning 6 figure salaryman with net-worths in the millions, but the rent crisis is becoming a really serious issue.

Isn’t that article a little off? It says inflation is up 6.5% from a year ago? I think everyone knows inflation is up from a year ago. The big issue is if it’s up over month to month at this point correct?

It's only stagflation with no growth.

We're more likely looking at an inflationary recession. Which is worse. Negative growth with out of control inflation.

They play with the numbers to make it seem less. I was shocked to learn it doesn’t take into consideration package changes or innovation. If a 3# chub of beef is $12 and they decide to start selling chubs in 2# for $12 that is no inflation. The 360p tv that was $1200 years ago is now $125 so that’s a huge deflation

Well, the biggest cheat they undertake is their removal of two of the biggest financial impacts in food and energy.

A poster said last year the fed should just rip the band aid and raise rates to 15%.

Article is behind a paywall. Can you post it or at least give some quotes?

Or whatever the real inflation rate is, yeah.

Last guy that did it was Paul Volcker. It was painful but it worked.

He's dead and no one has the political balls to do it.

Plus, all they do is continue printing and inflating, driving people away from savings and into the stock market. This will just continue until these practices are ended.

I have no doubt the Biden administration will make it 10x worse. Democrats have no idea how to deal with rising rents. They will try some draconian measures like rent control which only make the problem worse.

This depression is going to be one for the history books
