Slightly ugly July CPI numbers anticipated |
2023-08-01 |
Link goes to the Cleveland Federal Reserve site which does NOW casting on the CPI. For June (from the BLS site) CPI - year over year = 3.0% coreCPI - year over year = 4.8% For July (from the Cleve Fed site which does the now cast and has finished uploading July 31 numbers) CPI - year over year = 3.4% coreCPI - year over year = 4.9% so, inflation is not getting better and maybe it is getting worse - of course final numbers may be slightly different August may also be a problem month since Yellow Corp which set the lowest cost freight rates for trucks is going bankrupt which will allow other companies to increase their rates |
