    from the Fed,

    The Fed sees risks as “tilted” toward higher inflation.


    The latest economic data indicates that the personal consumption expenditures price index,
    the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge, rose 2.9% year over year in December. Core PCE inflation,
    which excludes food and energy costs is projected to have risen 3%.

    “Those readings indicate that progress on inflation essentially stalled in 2025,”
    “Such a plateau is frustrating after seeing significant disinflation in the preceding few years.”





    fwiw,

    to say that Trump has been pressuring the Fed to cut the discount rate
    would be understating it.

    a cut in rate can lead to higher inflation, worsen by the dotard's so-called "wonderful spending bill"​

    Thank you Trump -- Prosperity is booming thanks to lower taxes, lower interest rates, lower inflation, lower energy costs, and strong manufacturing investment. All driven by Trump's economic policies.



    GOOD DAY

    It's getting harder and harder for the American Economy Haters to find obscure points to attempt (fail) to make their case! What's next, a pizza place in DC had 2% lower sales in January 2026?

    LOL. The data speaks -- and the data is ROBUST. GDP Growth, Employment, Low Inflation, Corporate Profits, Stock market gains, Real Wage Growth, Lower Taxes -- this economy is ROARING.

    GOOD DAY

    2/3rd of gdp growth was because of AI investment. Imagine telling a working class worker that they should be more excited about Ai growth vs a job market thats not dead in the water. You people are such braindead losers which is why Trump's approval rating is the lowest its ever been.

    Bragging about "employment" at a time we just had most layoffs in 20 years lol. Such utter shameless group of losers

    It's clear you know nothing about how the economy works. Look at employment or unemployment rates -- they are VERY STRONG. Cherry picking a slice of data from a single month is absurd -- and meant to deceive. Dishonesty -- it's all the Democrats are left with! (and of course racism accusations)

    The liberals are becoming increasingly frustrated that this economy is BOOMIN'. Trump's policies simply work. Which is obvious because lower inflation, lower energy costs, lower taxes, lower crime, and less waste/fraud/abuse is a clear recipe for GOLDEN ERA BENEFITS. The liberals want to raise taxes, fight more wars, prohibit energy production, give hard-earned tax payers dollars to Somali Muslim daycare fraudsters, and have your children watch drag queens read books to them. They also want open borders... which blows the roof off of crime, housing costs, food costs, and the deficit. Republican policies are just common sense... and they are working beautifully.


    GOOD DAY

    - unemployment rate is higher today than when it was when Trump left office

    - it's not "one small subset" of numbers but rather 2025 was the single worst year of job growth in over 20 years.

    Low iq MAGA think we're all brainwashed boomers. Your propoganda only works on low iq individuals like @Tomstro @strosb4bros .

    Trump 2.0's Humiliating Jobs Numbers

    Since Trump returned to office, the economy has only been adding ~~ 49K jobs per month on average,
    compared to about 168K jobs per month under former President Joe Biden.

    as usually Traitor George is parroting the intelliectual dishonesty of the FixedNews Network
    fox news intentionally omitted to mention the many downward adjustments attendant to the Jan 2026 job report..​



    the full picture of the Jan report---after factoring the downward adjustments---is mixed

    Mixed January Jobs Report:
    • Job growth in Jan 2026 increased after
    • reporting a downward adjustment, BIGLY, of 2025 job growth #
      • from 584K to 151K
    This sleight-of-hand reporting flashes a shinny object (Jan 2026 job growth) to divert attention away
    from the downward adjustments (from 584K to 151K) for 2025
