The Consumer Price Index (CPI) — a measure of some fictional version of everyday life — was released despite the government shutdown. But one has to wonder: would they have pushed for its publication if the results contradicted the White House’s dovish narrative? Such is the nature of politics.

Today’s Economy & Stock Report update, 10/24/25 – The Economy Is in Trouble says what needs to be said, rather than what people want to hear. The invisible hand is indifferent to political narratives; when false perceptions finally shatter, risk on trends, like the stock market, tend to break violently.

Inflation is easing, just as we predicted long ago: prices fall during a bone-crushing recession. The only inflation gauge that truly matters continues its sharp decline. A decisive close below the zero line would mark the beginning of a new deflationary impulse. Is this what the majority is cheering today?
