US Inflation Is Exploding Again (Please Panic)

US Inflation has increased from 3.2% to 3.7% and according to the media, it is time to panic.

The stock market is now fearing more rate hikes and everyone is talking about a second wave of inflation.

But the data seems to say the exact opposite, so is the CPI inflation read really that bad? Is inflation about to skyrocket? Or is it all a pile of donkey poop?

Thankfully my employer gave me a 1.67% pay rise this year, so I’m all good.

I'll only start panicking when they make shoplifting illegal again.

I have mixed feelings about inflation. In the US we’re seeing all the major unions finally negotiating contracts. As that happens two things will happen - deflation won’t happen with increased purchasing power. 2) the people temporarily gaining purchasing power working low wage jobs making $15-$20/hour will now be poor again.

Legend. An economist and comedian all smushed together. Always a welcome change from the suit wearing miserable bastards i see on the news here in the UK. Dont ever change Sasha.

I've gone to the store twice in the last month and each time the prices of the things I usually buy are higher with the exception of a few produce and bakery items. It's hilarious the blatant price gouging going on.

Insurance companies are the problem - raise claims costs in their own repair business so they can then charge other insurance companies insane fees. Which then normalise insane labour rates (150 per hour in my local city now for main dealers), then repeat.

It’s like UShealthcare all over again.

I personally think it should be mandatory to show a pie chart of where the costs come from then see how they can justify it.

Thank you for the "please panic" guidance. Was confused how to react by now. So selling all stocks as all companies will go bust, guaranteed, giving house to charity as it will be worthless tomorrow anyway, and driving off the bridge as there is no tomorrow. Did I forgot anything od azz todo panic list?

This is why the world should not be oil dependent. Solar and EV are the answer

[dentheplodder]

The Saudis need oil prices to rise. Them mega wages for Ronaldo, Neymar, Jordan Henderson, etc. have to come from somewhere, no? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Problem in the UK is that the government can't reduce anything without robbing from elsewhere to pay for it. Taxes can come down but say good bye to all your public services likes libraries, buses and old people care lol😂.

[quokkapirquish]

Can’t wait for the UK inflation data, gonna hurt. Surely it is time to reduce fuel duty, even if it is temporary

[SeeLasSee]

It may not be your thing Sasha but the Panama Canal delays due to drought also could have a tiny effect. Wait times from days to weeks now.

Little story from a friend in the US who owns a Rivian all electric truck. They had a very minor fender bender and it cost them 42K to get it fixed. 42k! This is because the battery may have been damaged so they had to replace thee whole thing. EV's dont seem like a so smart move now knowing this.

[oitzingerpeter]

Interest rates have to go up a little bit more yet, and then be held there for at least 12 months as we wait and see whether the interest rate rises take effect.

[youtubesucks]

Thankfully my employer gave me a 100% pay cut this year, so I cannot contribute to inflation. I’m doing my part gentlemen!

[bilbojenkins]

On the car point - WTF does anything plugged into a car need to be, 'paired' to the cars computer??!! I can plug damn near anything into my computer, give it 30 seconds to download a driver, and boom! It works. What a racket....

[gdfhnt]

Not sure where they get these numbers from but it seems like inflation is running way higher than these numbers suggest.

The hurricanes are not getting worse, but people are building in lower regions and more cars are overnight is basement residence locations

But there is one problem. There is massive decrease in investments in new oilfields. So in the future we can see increase in oil prices. However we are seeing massive rise in electric vehicle sells.
