Prices.... Going Up!!!

5 days after mid-term elections and prices are starting to drop.

Over the weekend Stop&Shop had frozen turkeys for 49 cents lb. ( limit 2...we bought 2)

Yesterday Aldi was practically giving the food away. Eggs were down to $2.99. Butter was $2.49 ( limit 6...we bought 6), Eggplant was really fresh and only $1.35 lb.

It feels like we're going in the right direction.....
Gas dropped 50 cents here about the same time
 
@GChief If it’s good for the food bank….good on you & coworkers. Cheap & nice way of giving back to community.
I always get mine fresh from a local farm every year. I stumbled across the $4-6 turkeys when in Foodlion and just emailed all hands in our small company and ended up with 26 to drop off.
A local radio station does (26th) a huge Thanksgiving food drive.

...and down.

If you purchased TESLA shares @ or before ~ 20 June 2020, you've done alright, better still if you purchased them in 2019 or earlier. But since 2021, things are lookin' -- and stayin' -- down: TESLA single share value has decreased 54% between November 2021 and 22 November 2022. Opening at $169.91 today, Wall Street's betting the value will decrease further, to ~ $150 per share, by Q1 2023.

Make of these data what you will. It's all you can do.
 
One thing about inflation thats never gets factored in properly is mortgages. Avg home price in US is around $420k so at 3% mortgage your payment would of been $1800, now the same $420K loan at 7% mortgage your payment is $2,930. So $1100 more each and every month. The US is fixing to get another lesson in inflation, economics and budgeting. Our national debt is funded by T bills and we were paying minimal interest on that $31Trillion of debt, now they are funding our debt at 4% on T Bills, so $1.2 TRILLION in interest each year instead of being used for other stuff at current rates.

Sure looks like a long term topping pattern to me.
 
My 21 year old coworker, (female) came back from break yesterday ranting and raving that "stuff" was getting so expensive. She got a text from a streaming service with a rate increase. She said she won't pay and additional $3.00 per month, and cancelled the service. I learned real quick that stretching the dollar will counteract inflation/shrinkflation. Plan smart buy smart.

As global supply chains come apart largely due to China and Russia and aging populations inflation will be here for a while ,but not wasting resources and good money management practices goes along way in easing the pain ! Gettin away from over consumerism ,is not only good for the wallet but the environment as well !
