The Inflation Dynamics: Understanding Headline and Core CPI

The first main idea discussed in the podcast is the acceleration of headline CPI, primarily driven by energy. The three-month annualized inflation rate reached 3.9%, the highest in several months. Food and energy were the major contributors to this increase. On the other hand, core CPI continued to decelerate, driven by a deflationary trend in core goods.
