Prices.... Going Up!!!

[Jeffery]

It's a good thing we're draining the Strategic Petroleum Reserve or prices would be really high!

CPI shows inflation up 0.4% (month to month) for September. Which means the Fed will most likely go for another hike to destroy demand.

Year over Year for Sept

All of those very popular over here and, price-wise, still pretty stable YoY.

Yuk, nasty stuff. Glad prices are stable for those who enjoy it.

Yesterday I had the weather on and when the news came on they compared today's state average gas price to what it was a year ago and noted it was 2 cents less.
Then announced the states with the most and least changed prices vs a year ago.

Curiously, the didn't mention that FL is under a temporary gas tax holiday which amounts to between 25 and 35 cents depending on the county.

That's just poor reporting.

Like a news commercial on the radio, I heard this morning about an officer being shot in Texas I think, with no mention as to why they were there. We don't have reporters anymore, just headline creators, or copy and pasters of incomplete information because we don't have reporters anymore lol.

Looks like copper will go up.

Copper supplies are dangerously low and can only cover less than 5 days of global demand, top commodities trader says

[djwhy60]

Made a grocery run this AM.....and it isn't pretty out there. The rise in ALL prices is very evident.

 

[Mystic]

Now am into Day 6 of my 30 days away from France and in DC metro (Alexandria VA). Been to local grocers and a few cafes & restaurants. Yeah, price of food from grocer and at service venues is very high, lots higher than in France.

My gas is on a "balanced" plan (I pay the same amount every month, adjusted annually). Ten years ago it was $38 a month, couple years later it went up to $43 then $50 and was stable for 3-4 years until Covid hit, then it jumped to $73. The newest adjustment hit yesterday, now $82 a month.
