Real numbers. Inflation is falling.
...

I just happened to visit truflation.com this morning (see below). Looks like their data showed declining rate of inflation from June to October and then it spiked back upwards:

This is what led me to the site:

Dear D.O.G.E.

At Truflation.com, 3 years ago in the disbelief that inflation was transitory we launched the first, fully real-time, US inflation index.

Trusted by investors and economists globally, Truflation utilizes its dedicated Application Specific Blockchain providing transparency, governed by an independent network, and leveraging a consensus algorithm verifying data quality and accuracy.

Truflation tracks the granular movement of consumer prices in real-time (daily) computing:

  • 30 Million Price Points.
  • 3 price feeds for every price point.
  • Sourced from over 80 different data providers and APIs.
  • In partnership with Universities.
  • Deployed on a decentralized database built with US technologies.
  • Maintained, operated and enhanced by a network of 20 different node operators.
  • Backed by Chainlink, Coinbase and Balaji Sirivasan.
Despite wide recognition among economists and investors, attempts to work with the BLS and its Agencies have failed, yet outsourcing the BLS to Truflation aligns with DOGE’s mandate to

  • Eliminate bureaucracy
  • Adopt technology-driven solutions
  • Increase velocity of information distribution
  • Accelerate financial and economic growth

Truflation has demonstrated its capability working with the Argentina Government, exposing government data as a public good while acting as the independent source of truth for Argentina CPI calculations.

Due to the real time availability of the economic data combined with the index calculations and other benefits, Truflation can unlock significant financial value opening new markets accelerating investment decisions, as well as optimizing central interest rate policies.

We would love to explore the opportunity to collaborate with DOGE and explore unlocking true economic potential bringing about and documenting the economic renaissance.

Sincerely,

Stefan Rust
Founder of Truflation.

 
What is coming is inevitable. Get rid of all "savings" or "market investment" dollars or lose what they represent.

Change my mind:

Bouts of high inflation is like tsunamis. It comes in waves. Second wave incoming.
I honestly think inflation is more like a tidal bore. We are in the first five seconds of this video:

Ron Paul said:
... President Trump should follow through on his critiques of the Fed by working with Congress to pass the audit of the Fed bill and legislation allowing people to use alternatives like precious metals and cryptocurrencies.

Yeah!
 
Wasn't that the idea behind making the Central Bank (FRB) PRIVATE, owned by "citizens" (commercial bankster interests) and not the government?

So what it did, is draw the banksters closer into the Ruling Class circles. Fascism - a melding of government and corporate.

We would have been far better off leaving money as the prerogative of the Treasury, abiding by the Constitution: Only gold and silver being lawful money.

But laws, rules, regulations and Constitution sections all count for nothing without morality of the Ruling Elite.

Fed holds rates steady, drops reference to inflation 'progress' from policy statement​

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Federal Reserve held interest rates steady on Wednesday and gave little insight into when further reductions in borrowing costs may take place in an economy where inflation remains above target, growth continues, and the unemployment rate is low.

After several months in which inflation data have largely moved sideways, the U.S. central bank dropped from its latest policy statement language saying that inflation "has made progress" towards the Fed's 2% inflation goal, noting only that the pace of price increases "remains elevated."

Not at all.

That's the Frankfurt School's greatest trick.

The Fed is a tool. So is Big Education - K-to-postgrad.

CONSTANTLY redefine, obfuscate, obliterate, feed irrelevant data into the system. Deliberately confuse INFLATION - a growth (inflation) of the money supply without wealth to back it, with PRICE INCREASES, simply reflecting that the cost of something is more than it was. Crop failures are not inflation. Regulatory cost pass-alongs are not inflation. Scarcity of raw materials is not inflation.

PRINTING MONEY is inflation. That's the ONE thing the Cultural Marxists want us NOT to explore.

Because money-printing is central to their game plan.
