There's a shock...
ECONOMY Key Fed inflation measure rose 0.6% in January, more than expected
"Headline inflation increased 0.6% and 5.4% respectively.
All the numbers were higher than estimates."
(Thats sarcasm BTW.)
"The personal consumption expenditures price index excluding food and energy increased 0.6% for the month, and was up 4.7% from a year ago, the Commerce Department reported Friday. Wall Street had been expecting respective readings of 0.5% and 4.4%."
"Consumer spending also rose more than expected as prices increased, jumping 1.8% for the month vs. the estimate for 1.4%. Adjusted for inflation, prices rose 1.1%."
(You cant say the economy is good because:
consumer spending is up.
when:
consumer spending is only up
because:
prices have risen as a result of
the money supply being inflated.
it's circular reasoning and it ignores the problem which is:
the money supply being inflated.)
