Americans' inflation fears declined for the first time in over a year in January, although concerns over rising prices remained near a record-high level, according to a key Federal Reserve Bank of New York survey published Monday.
The median expectation is that the inflation rate will be up 5.8% one year from now, down from an 11-year high of 6%, according to the New York Federal Reserve's Survey of Consumer Expectations. It marked the first time since October 2020 that consumers' short-term inflation expectations fell. Inflation expectations over the next three years also dropped to 3.5%, down from 4% last month.

MSNBC, and CNN viewers.
I’m a Town Supervisor and I see price increases in everything we buy. There is a certain portion of the population that will believe inflation is going back down. We need to take back power from the Dems and Dino’s and the deep state. I firmly believe this is our last chance.

Decline?? Crock of sh!t. It’s transitory, right?
End the fed! Owned by a bunch of off shore and foreign bankers set on our demise.
Heh, careful we don’t want you injured!
I always loved when Colonel Potter from MASH would use that phrase.

Those who DELIVERED the 81 million votes.
“Decline?? Crock of sh!t. It’s transitory, right?”
Heh, you are missing the point. This isn’t about inflation, it’s about fear.
You can’t beat anything until you lose your fear of it.
Just more proof that shows the Federal Reserve needs to be scraped.
If the expected rate of increase decreases, then they say that is a lessening of fear. Prices will be even higher a year from now, if these courageous pollees (?) are correct.
These uneducated dumbasses are same morons that the polls are always asking their questions to. They haven’t got a clue about what inflation is or how the economy works. When it comes to the economy, they’re about as retarded as AOC is about it.
Meanwhile inflation tick up to 7.5%. Makes sense to me.
You got that right!
It's PROPAGANDA being peddled to the American public.
Those buying it are the same ones who are willing to participate in getting an endless stream of "booster shots."
Agreed. “The creature from Jekyll Island” by G Edward Griffin was a real eye opener for me.
“Meanwhile inflation tick up to 7.5%. Makes sense to me.”
It’s just like Covid. It’s not gone but the fear is subsiding.
Very normal. You can’t stay in panic too long, eventually fear wears off and you get on with life.
Inflation, as measured the way it was measured in 1980, is 15%, not 7.5%.
If they wanted to pull a Volcker, they would have to raise the rate to something above 15% to get it under control. Since there isn’t a full set of balls anywhere in this Admin, look for inflation, as measured in 2022, to go to over 10%.
I noticed that mortgages have spiked to 4.3% this AM. That’s not going to be good enough. Not nearly.
Brandon is just trying to show that "I AM GREAT LEADER". Despite his frigg'n failure in absolutely everything.
What I did notice is that the media is using Vindman as an expert in Russian relations. IIRC, he and his evil twin were born in Ukraine when it was part of Russia..
I must object.
They’re not declaring victory (yet). Rather than adhering to ‘science’ they are looking into their crystal balls (funny how these ‘projections’ always work in their favor) weeks into the future and pacifying detractors by granting relief from their unjustified, wholly illegal dictates.
‘Victory’ will be declared later when it is politically-expedient. Right now, they’re buffering public pushback, particularly in response to the Freedom Convoy and its effects.
Imagine where we’d be had we collectively done the same a year or more ago. But no: The power remains among the tyrants only to manifest at another time of their choosing.
That gas is $3.70/gal now is just my imagination.
LOL....eventually lots battered wives learn to live with the beatings.
