Federal Data Says Inflation Continues to Rise

Newly released federal data showed that inflation continues to rise in the U.S.

The Bureau of Economic Analysis released its Personal Consumption Expenditures marker Thursday, showed inflation rose 0.2% in January, more than many experts had previously expected.

“Core PCE inflation picked up a lot in January,” Harvard Professor Jason Furman wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, adding that the figure was “high relative to what might have been hoped a month ago.”

The increased costs varied across different goods and services.

  2. I don't think we need any .gov agency to tell us that inflation is going up. All you have to do is go to the grocery store.
