Rising Inflation and Deficits
The recent inflation data has indicated that prices are rising faster than expected, with significant implications for the U.S. economy. In the first two months of fiscal year 2025, the U.S. government reported a staggering $624 billion budget deficit, marking a 65% increase from the previous year. This trajectory suggests that the total deficit for the fiscal year could exceed $4 trillion, surpassing records set during the COVID-19 pandemic. Such alarming figures raise concerns about the strength of the economy, as persistent deficits typically signal a weakening fiscal position.
