The pace of US consumer price increases continued to cool down in March from last summer’s scorching-hot levels: Annual inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index, dropped for the ninth consecutive month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Wednesday. Prices rose 5% for the 12 months ended in March, down from 6% in February. It’s the smallest 12-month increase since May 2021. On a monthly basis, CPI, which measures price changes over time for a basket of goods, ticked up 0.
CPI is one of the major inflation gauges that’s being watched like a hawk by the Federal Reserve, which is in the throes of a yearlong campaign to battle inflation through monetary tightening and stark interest rate hikes. That fight grew more complex in March with the collapse of two regional US banks, which then caused turmoil in the financial industry. The Fed, the Treasury Department and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation stepped in to shore up depositors and prevent future bank runs.
But they still are rising. Biden claims they are falling and they are certainly not and won't because of the profits made. It's sad when food triples and the stores profit triple with it.
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Overall inflation, per 1980 calc method, is at 15%... still highest rate in history. CNN only reports what the commies tell them to report. Sick!! Like NPR: only repeat the party line... bought and paid for by NWO and WEF.
Lmao, it’s gonna suck when the recession hits full bore. Gonna suck for me too but I cope with dark humor. It’s gonna be a hilarious time for people who appreciate dark memes.
Another Biden win
Jesus CNN why don't you and Brandon get a room already?
Inflation works like this 2 steps up 1 step down 2steps up 1 step down it never comes back to where it started.
Meanwhile, the Cnn Fake News tribe of hacks has been like a careful janitor following the democrat trail of vomit, and diligently mopping it up.
Uuummmm still rising is the key phrase.
Lie lie lie what CNN does the best
More propaganda from CNN. CommunityNotes can we please fact check this ?
Biden has been in office OVER 2 years, all the inflation IS Giden
Absolutely false!
Defund fake news
So prices still going up, but less so? You know that's still bad, right?
Trumps fault !!
Funny spin on inflation. What cnn is forgetting to say is this is yet another month where inflation is higher under the current administration, again for nearly two years
“Prices rising” = “inflation fell” 🧐
News for make believe math majors not you
Lol with “PRICES RISING” literally still in the headline
Does this mean that everyone is going bankrupt?
Bullshit!!
Prices rising at ANY rate is further hurting the American working family! All caused by this administration’s radical socialist policies!
StateMedia FakeNews Garbage Negativity Hatred Division Deception BidenCrimeFamily BidenAdministration
Great now the Bidenflation is only at a 40 YEAR HIGH! BidensAmerica BidenDestroysAmerica
What the hell are you talking about inflation is sky high but nice way to try and spin it. You’re not fooling anyone
Ummm - must be a fake poll…. This is simply a lie
“Prices RISING at the slowest rate in 2 years”. Talk about putting lipstick on an A$$hole.
Biden’s inflation on the world and it isn’t getting better no matter what this China owned programming wants to try and make people think! The economy is horrible and there’s still the welfare people standing in line for handouts ! Can CNN report truth?
is trying their hardest to get people to believe prices aren’t outrageous everywhere still. 🤷♂️🤡
😂😂😂😂😂
Lies
Would someone please tell SenTedCruz so he stops spreading misinformation? Thanks.
guess they forgot to tell Chestertown TOPSMarkets prices keep going up up up. Outrageous. What used to buy for $50 now nearly $100 with no selection, lots of bare spaces
Prices are still out of control and gas is sky rocketing, quit trying to sugarcoat
Price RISING🤡
Wow let’s cause inflation for two years and then brag about it when it slows down. What was that you were saying when it was 18% a year, it’s only a short term blip.
So…still rising!!
Inflation is still too high. Gas prices to blame..
This is nothing to write home about. We need two years of massive deflation now. The current rate is still to high, even though it is not as high as it was. PLEASE!
Inflation is killing Americans
Is there anything you people can do other than LIE? Jesus Christ, the gaslighting never ends.
Boy is that a lie CNN. No wonder you're called fake news Try being on a fixed income. Oh that's right they don't count groceries and electric with the inflation rate. Fuel costs and gas either
GOOD NEWS WE ARE BEING MADE POORER MORE SLOWLY HOORAH !
It's 'inflating slower' is supposed to be good news or? lol
Too bad Biden made such a mess with this economy, hopefully the country will vote overwhelmingly for President Trump, we had so much peace and our economy was soaring...
Thank you Joe!
Prices rising...
But 24 straight months of real wage losses 🤣
Why is gas and cost of living still high? 🤡
Inflation might have cooled, but prices have not made a significant drop, I think it is too preliminary to think we are out of the woods yet.
Since they started increasing interest rates, costing the consumer millions, and people are getting laid off by the thousands, inflation is down 0.1%. Got it.
misleading headline/fake news, again, cnn doing nothing to help the working class in america. If you had any morals you would do a report on how inflation is calculated and excludes essentials like food, fuel, and housing. We all know cnn hates the american people.
They pay people to write this crap ?
“Prices are still rising”
It’s cooled by rising! Amazing
Hi, my name is CNN and this is how to make a misleading headline. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
But it’s rising.
Prices have risen consistently over the last two years this is not good news.
It was 1.4% when Trump left. Lets do the math. Oh it just THREE TIMES HIGHER now
Not a chance in hell this is true
Total bull shit! Have you bought groceries this week?
At the end of the day I believe each of us who are grown adults that DO NOT still live at home with mommy and daddy, who are still on their cellphone plan, still lingering in the basement or old bedroom without no cares, will determine themselves what inflation REALLY is.
Let's celebrate higher inflation because it increased less. All major media sucks. They are nothing but the marketing arm for their chosen side. Professional spin cycle.
So it’s still rising just slower? That’s the headline right.. but you softball it
So the rate at which prices are increasing is back to 8%. Careful you don’t hurt your back carrying all that water for Biden, CNN
'Prices rising' are the only two words I hear.
bullshit
AN ditto the Saudis one day to screw that up.
Right… 🙄
Lol no
The fuck it did 😂😂. Literally everyones grocery trips beg to differ.
Inflation still high and not dropping. Prices still rising but just not as fast. Good job for perpetuating fake news and twisting every headline you spew. You guys are a joke 🤡
“Here's good news! According to this eye-catching article, SAT scores are declining at a slower rate!” -Homer Simpson
gee, swell......still can't afford anything
🤪🤡
So Bidenflation is slowing from the speed of light down to the speed of sound .woohoo!
Prices continue to rise… trying to spin Biden failed policies. Reality is not for the “educated” Biden supporters.
'The steam escaping the pipe is already a lethal temperature, but recently we've noticed its temperature increase has slowed, so everyone should be happy now.' - CNN
It cooled but, still rising. Huh. I'm so happy.
Righttttt
Fuck this shit on my feed🤮
Just amazes me how you spin things! The economy sucks & you know it! Just walk into a grocery store, buy gas, pay your utility bills, try to get a house loan! trys to sugarcoat the horrible truth! Just STOP!
Why don’t you piss down my leg and tell me it’s raining?
Still double what it was 2 years ago. The damage is done.
There may be hope yet
Bidenflation is ruining our country. Stop sending 🇺🇦 our $, stop the ludicrous spending. Let’s cut govt spending by 90% and watch our private sector soar like it did before we had a federal income tax. TaxationIsTheft
Thanks Biden !!
But inflation has been higher than 5% for 23 months in a row. Whoopi dooh
Bullshit! You wish! Fact: inflation continues to grow as do gas prices. LIE all you want but the facts don't lie & don't care about your fake feelings or purchased & sponsored corporate & elite opinions, goals, agendas & taking points. You will be held accountable.
Core prices still high. Hurting working middle class families.
Women are giving birth to babies on the sidewalk in San Francisco and SockPuppets are still blowing smoke up the butts of people living paycheck to paycheck that don't have healthcare. and DNC should get a room. Bring smokes and some Bud-Lite 😒
Prices still rising lol
It's still up from where Trump had it, fact.
Wait, thought there was no inflation. Or was it transitory. Or were you just covering for Biden when you parroted that bullshit?
MarvinMilton2 ...but still rising :(
😂😂😂you are so full of it
Gasoline went from 3.49 to 4.09 in just a couple of weeks. Everyday it’s higher.
Oh well let's all fucking celebrate. They have caught up with where they wanted to be with the fleecing of America. Geeze
We are over 30 trillion in debt. Next thing you're going to tell us is that investor confidence is high. 🤣🤷
Sad，😆Please do whatever you can to support Ukraine during these difficult times. My suggestion is to give Zelensky half the money in your bank account. Remember Russia is after you 😆 Zelensky is just in the way. Protect yourself, give, give, give! 😹
If you read only CNN articles, you would think everything differs from reality. This is why nobody reads your garbage anymore. You have an agenda, and you push it in every single article. Core CPI still increased, but you 'experts' say it was expected.
When it comes to the things ordinary people need to buy, inflation is running double digits. Just ask anyone who has to shop for groceries.
But they're still rising.
Yet, they're still rising. It's a very interesting way for you to try and write it to make it sound as if it's gotten better but it hasn't. Prices are still Rising that's all they've done under this Administration is go up. While wages have gone down. Try reporting it factually
Key words...prices 'rising.' They are still rising.
This is why nobody takes you serious anymore. You could see this exact headline over at FOX news if Trump was president…
Good keep the interest rate hikes up. Inflation pain going down recession pain on the horizon!
so we are suppose to be happy that prices are RISING ok got it. The emperors have no clothes
Curious, who caused to SPIKE to insane levels That's right, Joe Biden... And it's still high
na that’s cap , everything still high af 💀
So prices are still rising. Got it.
Wow! LetsGoBrandon!!
We can all do a better job in helping others.
