What people believe may happen to prices in the future can influence actual inflation. “People behave in accordance with their expectations and with their sentiment and attitudes towards the economy,” Joanne Hsu, director of the Surveys of Consumers at the University of Michigan, told CNBC. Watch the video above to learn more about how inflation expectations are measured, why the Federal Reserve cares so much about what Americans predict and how consumer behavior can manifest higher prices.

How Consumers Can Manifest Inflation

General Inflation Report
1. War causes inflation to go up, so its important to avoid war or violence or terrorism in general which governments around the world are trying hard to prevent such things from occuring.
2. Wars in the middle east can cause gas prices and the prices of groceries from milk to eggs to bread to go up as well.
3. So its very very important to stop war and violence and everything.
4. The more we create stability in the world and create order out of disorder the better it will be at reducing inflation and the cost of living in general. And not only that it will strengthen many large economies around the world too. Cost of capital and etc.
5. So the more we prevent war and terrorism and genocide the better it will be for the cost of living in general. Chaos causes the cost of living to go up and up, but peace and stability causes the cost of living to go down and down and down.
2024 year where the u s a, shall be under judgment for inflation due to forsaking the gospel
!
Repent, love and obey the lord Jesus Christ.,.,.
We all know that prices of almost everything aren’t coming down. Simply put, they're rising less. Costs are rising due to rising inflation. As we are evidently at the verge of hyperinflation, with the less haves bearing the brunt of the burden. I'm more concerned that the rising inflation may lead my entire $990k retirement funds to lose value. Where else could we put our cash?
In 2023, 70% of all EBT food recipients worked full time jobs in fast food. The remaining are generally the elderly and handicapped. 🇺🇸 can not afford to pay its Owen people higher wages. The easiest way was to open the borders to employee those with lower wages due to in 2035 🇺🇸 will have a population shortage to generate enough war bucks to protect the country. People will have no choice but to give up freedom for safety. The decision was made in 2012. This is the death of the Baby Boomers Golden Era
For how long are they going to lie to us about this being an inflation? Before we realize we are back to the 1933 recession? Most people believe we are already there. The more they print to give away and back up the banks, the more they destroy the value of the dollar. Really, a person doesn't need much evidence or excuses to vote for Trump. Everywhere you look, there is plenty of evidence to vote for Trump.
This is so much BS. Few people really discuss this in normalized data. Powell saying inflation is coming down is just wrong. Maybe the rate increase of price increases has fallin but most of the time vendor raise rates one time to the worse case scenario because they don’t want to anger the consumer repetitively. Ergo, the record profits corporations are seeing. “They ain’t going back” until business drops off. No factor in the massive credit debit and yes the consumer looks inelastic. There were a pile of hidden taxes added to the consumer in the form of embargoes. Having lurches a fair amount of stuff from China, they have doubled. Most Americans businesses use china and that cost is just passed on. Tesla can lower the price of their car in china but when a car is imported it gets a tax. For a long time many believed that USAcould compete with any country and beat most. Not so much anymore. (Side bar) those old enough to know what a schedule cigarette break was realize that nothing was getting done when someone was out smoking so they limited the frequency and duration. Today, is there a cell phone break? No way! It’s your right to access your phone, even if you are stealing from your employer. This and many other things like low education, politically correctness, woke, and others has severely throttled Americans productivity. Less producers and more consumers…inflation!
High minimum wage further reduced the work force. Technology has done the same. Old manager used to have 8-10 staff. New ones have double that until the company realized they could work everyone harder. That is why so few people came back to work after Covid. Working from home, that was a breeze. Inflation is a systemic problem. The gov can slow the consumer by making things more expensive but then you have a country like all the others. Why oh why doesn’t anyone talk about increasing productivity. Every time I see a little s$#& box car from Italy I don’t think that is cute like a lot of people, I think, that is all the Italians could produce and export because they are we and inefficient. We made big Buicks, Chevrolet, Cadillacs. We were American, the best of the rest. Inflation is a cultural issue, not a government issue. The effort by the feds is like lowering the speed limit to save on gas. We want to go fast, not slow.
inflation is causing alot more crime i get my groceries delivered too much crime i dont go to walmart or any store
It’s bold of them to assume people are going to go and buy a new dishwasher because they might think next year it will have a higher nominal price in a country where over 60% of adults can’t cover a $400 emergency.
Gold or inflated money?????
Ty for a great video. With all respect, this is just what I've learned as I study the bible: this is proove that the end of this system of thing is near. Revelation 6:6 says; I heard what sounded like a voice in the midst of the four living creatures say: “A quart of wheat for a de·narʹi·us and three quarts of barley for a de·narʹi·us; and do not harm the olive oil and the wine.”
After the opening of “the third seal,” as referred to at Revelation 6:6
-Apocalipsis in some bibles-both a khoiʹnix of wheat and three khoiʹni·kes of barley are said to sell for a denarius. Generally, scholars believe the size of the khoiʹnix to be slightly more than a liter or a little less than a U.S. dry quart. Since a denarius was a day’s wage in John’s time (Mt 20:1-12), the selling of grains at such prices would indicate famine conditions. Things will get worse people. We should do as Jesus told us to do in Matthew 28:19,20 and continue doing this. Oh also Jesus taught us how to pray but most of people don't do it, if you want to learn how to pray look on Matthew 6:9 and start praying the true God, Jesus' Father Jehovah as it says in Isaiah 42:8 "I am Jehovah. That is my name; I give my glory to no one else, Nor my praise to graven images."How was prices of everyday products 20years ago ??

The convergence of inflation, bank instability, an intense drought in the agricultural region, economic recession, scarcity of food, shortages in diesel fuel and heating oil, a lack of baby formula, limited availability and increased prices of automobiles, and rising living costs all suggest an impending disaster, possibly by the end of this year or even sooner. With inflation currently around 6%, my foremost worry is how to optimize my stagnant savings and retirement fund of approximately $300,000, which has seen negligible gains for an extended period.
I think it is wrong to say that inflation is the rise in price of a basket of goods. It should rather be the increase in supply of money – such as the returns provided by the stock market, which define the increase in prices of assets.
This whole comment sections is Suss.
I think the current market presents a good opportunity for long-term gains, but I'm also interested in learning ways to make short-term profits. I want to invest more than $300k, but I'm not sure how to go.
Thanks to Bidenomics, inflation in September 2023 was down to 3.4% per annum.
Maximum employment doesnt effect the inflation positively…if everyone works and gets paid well inflation goes up
It's hard to predict the future until we see this month’s inflation results. However, historical data consistently show that stocks tend to outperform bonds in the long term. Therefore, I'm staying in the market and focusing on selecting high-quality stocks. The challenge lies in identifying these stocks.
Managing money is different from accumulating wealth, and the lack of investment education in schools may explain why people struggle to maintain their financial gains. The examples you provided are relevant, and I personally benefited from the market crisis, as I embrace challenging times while others tend to avoid them. Well, at least my advisor does too, jokingly
Don't blame citizens for business greed. People are only doing what they must to survive. It's companies that control production cycles and pay. They are getting record profits because the prices are inflated to what they think the market can bare. Not what is best for the economy.
ALLHOME ITEM IN FAMILY FRIEND SHIP FAMILY COMPANY. YARA KHUSH TA ALL ARE BEAUTIFUL
My advice to new investors: Buy good companies stocks and hold them as long as they are good companies. Just do this and ignore the forecasts and market views which are at best entertaining but completely useless.
how accurate the survey depends on the way the questions are asked, and to whom it is targeted at. US economy is almost at a cliff, just waiting for that one wrong/right move
Look at packing sizes, shrinkflation is a real thing.
Inflation depreciates idle money. I'm in a privileged position to be able to save almost 65% of our net household income, as I placed it on safer investments. The key for us was not spending beyond our means. If you invest and have other sources of income outside of dividends then you will be able to live off dividends. Got north of $200K in my portfolio as I bought a lot of dividend stocks before, I'm buying more now, and I will buy more when it drops further
The prices of inflation fluctuates as we go by, but the inflation rate is remain high. Inflation is not transitory, it is a lie. Inflation will remain for a long time, to ease up inflation is to cut back all government spending and tighten its budget.
😠😡😠Modi killed Innocent Muslims in Delhi and also killed Innocent Coins, this Modi Terrorist did a lot for his own interest and now killed innocent Coins in Canada and terrorism in Pakistan has been done by Modi. So now Modi should be blacklisted by FATF.
And a new prime minister came to India
And India should be blacklisted by FATF for five years because it has misbehaved with America, the superpower of this world.

A lot of it is price gouging. You can’t tell me this “ inflation” isn’t part of these mega cooperations reporting high record profits every Quarter to impress their investors.
This video is dumb there's literally a medical care strike with kaiser, a writers strike, and national automotive strike all happening because the cost of living is too high then you want to tell us to our face that the feds are doing a great job at this by showing a clips of someone touching buttons on an IPad. Stores are closing and leaving because people are stealing bacis items because everything is too damn high.
Love how they're only pointing out the lock downs but not even saying we printed billions to Ukraine and is holding their entire economy right now. Also the stock market isn't tied to the economy and consumers spending only makes up half of the economy. I can do better news than MSNBC.
It seems like inflation getting out of control is linked to terrible presidents 😆
Just admit biden screwed up its expensive everywhere. Making everything Electric isn't helping your not fighting climate change because you turn a blind eye to other countries pollution.
Fed studies actually show that inflation expectations have little to no effect on inflation. Also, the idea that the Fed can change inflation as easily as pressing the brakes of a car is an absurd fairy tale. This video is just pure misinformation.
So, price increases that far outstrip(ped) increases in costs has little to nothing to do with inflation?
Year-over-year inflation stood at 6.5% in December 2022—the lowest that figure has been in more than a year. Inflation was in line with what economists expected and gave many of them a reason to believe that the peak of inflation may be behind us. I have approximately $150k stagnant in my port_folio that needs growth. What is the best way to take advantage of this downturn?
When the FED and the deep state twist the numbers enough they can try to feed you the LIE that is things are great😂😂😂😂2A🎉🎉🎉🎉Trump2024 🎉🎉🎉🎉! The only thing that costs less now than 3 years ago is ANY and ALL JOE BRIBE EM MERCH😂😂😂😂
Leave it yo cnbc to try and convince you everything is ok luk
A recent issue financial newsletter shows how the inflation rate is really over 12%. The "Rule of 72" means that, at this rate of inflation, the value of your investments will be cut IN HALF in just 6 years. Jerome Powell and his fellow "smarty pants" do not include FOOD, ENERGY AND HOUSING in their inflation figures because their prices are volatile. Really? The only direction I see these prices going is UP. I guess "Is Anybody Home Jerome", thinks that "we the people" don't eat, don't consume energy and pay neither rent nor mortgages. My grocery bill has DOUBLED from a year ago. It is apparent, however, that those Washington bureaucrats DO think the American people are either stupid, ignorant or both. Let's show them differently in the 2024 election. GO PRESIDENT TRUMP!
