In the past two days, the Federal government (of the USA) has released the CPI (Consumer Price Index) and PPI (Producer Price Index) data for September, 2022. Economists noted that the data were significantly worse than most of them had foretold. I list some of the best commentary hereinbelow.
- US Inflation calculator and Inflation Data (ID.com) both provided the raw numbers. ID.com also made some interesting inflationary predictions and provided several excellent graphs.
- Mike Ashton offered his analysis, followed by Mish Shedlock.
- ZeroHedge added its perspective on the data.
