>actual inflation figures comes in at 12.5%
>estimates are 8.3
>shit shit shit what do we do
>ok ok ok lets just pretend its lower. Lets just say its like, higher than the estimate but only by a little bit.
>8.6%, yes lets go with 8.6% thats believable. Only 0.3% higher than the estimate. Bot enough to make everyone panic but enough for people to take us seriously

How much longer is this bullshit going to go on. How long can they actually drag it out?

Don't be surprised when they move the goalposts and call for a higher inflation target. They can just raise 2% to 8% and normalize it. Only schizos will care ( and make it), the average wagie will go back to caring about sports and whatever he watches on his streaming services that he pays 30$ a month for.

Q1 and Q2 of 2023.
So far Americans are renting their lifestyle with credit cards. When the credit is over, sales will plunge and shit will hit the fan.

Who tf made that estimate to begin with tho? It was obvious we aren't going to suddenly go below previous high, But current update is pretty good desu, It means inflation is actually regressing as we speak (Jump from month to month are basically reverting into negative), It IS under control which's a good news, The half a percent jump isn't the story here.

How many Americans are in massive credit card debt?

I opened a few cards in the last two years due to sign up bonuses and cash back, but I keep them paid off with my job. Are most people not doing this?
