    Since you clearly didn't, the data was from March 2024-March 2025. That means that most of this "deflation" (which is not the correct term, it should be noted) occurred during the Presidency of Joe Biden, when you were loudly complaining about the inflation.

    Right. Where do you get the information? These are from the consumer prices index. Do I need to explain what that is?

    Wrong. Please show me. The decrease in prices have occurred over the past few months. Liberals putting their head in the sand and spinning it however they want.

    No, your chart says that the price decreases happened from March 2024-March 2025. Do you need me to show you who was President during those months? Okay.

    March 2024: Biden
    April 2024: Biden
    May 2024: Biden
    June 2024: Biden
    July 2024: Biden
    August 2024: Biden
    September 2024: Biden
    October 2024: Biden
    November 2024: Biden
    December 2024: Biden
    January 2025: 2/3 Biden, 1/3 Trump
    February 2025: Trump
    March 2025: Trump

    Glad that I could help you out, since you apparently forgot who was President in 2024.

    "Economists" and their hedge-fund ilk are the ones that tried to crash our stock market after Trump announce Liberation Day... they shorted it... and it backfired. Lol. We The People (retail investors) bought the dip... :eek::D;)

    Now they're busy trying to prop up the EU stock markets, and they will fail.

    CPI tracks 80,000 items ... these are the 20 or so that have gone down over the last year? Cool. Now post the list of the items that have gone up up up.

    There are no shocks hitting the customers yet. Probably late June.

    Well, thanks Joe! Last week I was told this is still Biden’s economy.

    This graph shows CPI for all products over almost the identical date range. CPI increases in March 2025 was around 2.4%, or the same low that Biden saw in Sept, 2024. April numbers aren't finalized yet, but CPI is expected to come in around 2.6%. And as stated, the big increases are expected to start hitting over late Spring/early Summer.

    The Biden policies are being dismantled at a snail's pace, but it will be totally gone when the Congress gets off their lazy azzes and do what the electorate voted for.

    Cherry picking is finding a list of the few of items that have defied the Trump inflation trend, and claiming it representative of inflation...
