According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, annual inflation in America, which is broadly measured by the Consumer Price Index, fell to 3% in June. As inflation continues to fall and become more manageable, the possibility of interest rate cuts are back on the table - potentially coming as soon as September. Ali Velshi breaks down how the Federal Reserve makes these decisions and what they mean for you.

Just in time for the election how convenient. Still the inflation rate is 3% (that’s 50% higher than the Fed target). So why are they going to lower the Fed rate?

@goolsen5630 Ай бұрын

What are you talking about.

@RegebroRepairs Ай бұрын

They are lowering the fed rate because inflation has gone down. They raised it because inflation went up. This isn't exactly rocket science.

Things are definitely headed in the right direction. Better to keep moving forward with Biden, rather than retreating into the darkness.

Biden led us out of the covid pandemic better than most of Europe. Considering Donald is proposing 10% taxes on everything according to his rally speeches last month I'm not sure how he will fix anything if inflation is guaranteed to start at 10% under Trump just so rich people can buy more property and raise rents more.

Accapt the CPI stopped including coffee on its list because ot kept bringing that inflation rate up to 6.7%.

@theonlyconformist Ай бұрын

That's complete nonsense. Coffee would have to double in price and be 2/3rds of the economy for it to cause inflation to go up that much

Inflation needs to be negative 5% for 5 years to get prices back to normal. They need to reverse that inflation. And they leave out house prices altogether from their fake inflation number since the 1990s. House prices are the most important to keep prices in check and they do not. High house and rent prices are what destroy our standard of living the most.

"They need to reverse that inflation." Deflation is just as bad as inflation, if not worse, so no.
