Episode notes
Gradual Inflation Rise Impact
- Inflation is gradually accelerating, especially in core goods like apparel and household products.
- The rise is due to diminishing inventory stockpiling from tariffs, impacting future earnings and consumer spending.
Tariff Stockpiling Softens Inflation
- Imports surged earlier in the year due to tariff-related inventory stockpiling, with recent data showing record traffic at the Port of LA.
- This suggests that fears of empty shelves and severe inflation effects may not materialize as expected.
