Fox Business' broad inflation report contained an error
Here's Megan Henney, September 29th :
An inflation measure closely watched by the Federal Reserve ticked higher in August as steep prices continue to squeeze millions of U.S. households.
The personal consumption expenditures (PCE) index showed that consumer prices rose 0.4% from the previous month, according to the Labor Department. On an annual basis, prices climbed 3.5% — up from 3.3% recorded the previous month, underscoring the challenge of taming high inflation.
She's referring to PCEPI.
That measure isn't up from 3.3% the previous month. It's up from 3.4%, and 3.2% the month before that.
Jeff Cox at CNBC got it right, same day, as usual:
Including food and energy, headline PCE increased 0.4% on the month and 3.5% from a year ago. Headline inflation has been creeping higher in recent months after hitting 3.2% in June.
Forbes also had it right, because it actually checked the most recent data, which Fox evidently did not:
The most recent PCE price index data was released on September 29, 2023, covering the month of August. The
headline August PCE inflation figure was +3.5% year over year, which
was up slightly from the revised annual rate of +3.4% in July.
Three of 9 Target store closings are in progressive shit-hole Portland OR, CNN story gives them just 4 paragraphs at the end
Here.
Nobody wants to talk about the shit-hole progressives have made out of Portland, which first came to light nationally when the place erupted after the death of George Floyd.
The hallmark of progressive rule in Portland is that the justice system in their hands won't prosecute crimes, so the police are demoralized and now have interminable staffing problems. Who wants to arrest the same people over and over again knowing they'll just have to arrest them again over and over?
The murder rate in Portland is 1.85 times the US rate.
The robbery rate is 2.85 times the US rate.
The assault rate is 1.8 times.
The burglary rate: 2.56 times.
The theft rate: 2.7 times.
The motor vehicle theft rate is 5.3 times the US rate.
There are nearly 11 times the crimes per square mile overall in Portland than the national median.
