How do we know if they do not even publish inflation data? Also: How does the Federal Reserve operate during government shutdown?
They don’t release the jobs’ data because “gov shutdown waa :(”
Then they make a special exemption for CPI.
Then they say next month won’t have CPI OR jobs data released.
Shit’s fucked and they can only cook it for so long.
It’s a house of cards but nobody’s willing to blink, unlike 2008.
Real inflation since 2019 is over 200%, but don’t worry, look the stock market is up a whole 100% since then!!! Nothing to fear!
Substitution, hedonics, and weighting
oh and in completely unrelated news, the White House said there probably won’t be an inflation report next month https://www.businessinsider.com/white-house-says-probably-no-october-inflation-report-next-month-2025-10
Buckle up for even more as the Fed cuts rates for the next year or so…
bout goddamn time
