April CPI year-on-year 3.8%, the highest since May 2023,


0.1 percentage points higher than market expectations~
Energy prices rose 17.9% annually, gasoline up 28.4% annually,
Food prices saw the largest single-month increase since 2022~

Real hourly wages fell 0.5% monthly, down 0.3% annually—
Prices are rising, but purchasing power is falling~
The Federal Reserve’s 2% inflation target, now not even within reach,
The gap isn’t just a number, it’s the entire logic of rate cuts~
Wells hosted the first policy meeting in June,
Cut or not cut?
If they cut, inflation will continue to soar,
If they don’t, the economy will continue to be pressured~
Is stagflation about to begin?
