Friday on CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” pollster Frank Luntz issued a stark warning over the upcoming July 4 weekend.

According to Luntz, “we are 13 days away from an absolute explosion on inflation” because people are going to realize just how expensive groceries and gas have become.

He’s referring to political fallout. When people go out and buy their 4th of July cookout items they’ll get sticker shock.

I saw this video earlier. It doesn’t take an expert to say what he’s saying. He’s laying out the logic.

Earlier today a tarot card reader told me that I’ll hit the lottery 12 days from now. So I’ll be fine. Good luck to all you peons.

Oh, and here’s the card that the reader says applies to me. How it relates to the lottery, I don know. But she’s the expert, not me.

but “13 days.” Such precision.


Fourth of July stuff. Huge fuel and food purchasing going on.

Unless some report comes out on that day, maybe he’s thinking that it’s the day before a 4-day weekend for a lot of people (many will have Friday and Monday off).

“Why 13? Weird.”

June 30 is the end of the fiscal year. Lots of budgets are going to have to be adjusted for inflation. I won’t call it an explosion but a lot of accounting offices will be busy for much of July.

He is an expert on words and messaging. Sort of.
He is trying to be relevant.

-- Huge fuel and food purchasing going on. --

The same stuff people buy every week.

I predict less travel and more stay at home.

4th of July ...

... That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Looks good on paper. In fact and reality, not so much.

“...because people are going to realize just how expensive groceries and gas have become... over the upcoming July 4 weekend.”

Because Luntz thinks people will only realize this once they step out for the July 4th holiday. What a putz.

Really? He thinks people don’t go to the grocery store every week? We haven’t already noticed the prices? Lately, we’ve looked gas prices in the neighborhood every day. We don’t buy every day, but we look, just to see if it’s getting worse, or getting better. And lately, it’s keeps getting worse.

Twelve days from now is when the next GDP report comes out. I guess Luntz figures that the markets will tank on the day after that.

Is a new economic report coming out in 13 days?

The next GDP report comes out in 12 days. Markets will tank on the 13th day.
