WHAT'S IMPORTANT NOW
SPRING 2025
Week of May 11, 2025
​
The April inflation reading came in at an annualized 2.3%, lower than expected and the lowest since 2021.
Housing and shelter contribute almost 1/3 of the index weighting and continue to factor heavily into the overall number with an increase of .3% in April.
Economists continue to try to understand and factor in the impact tariffs will contribute towards inflation. Although the US-China 145% reciprocal tariff seems to be on pause for now, there remains much concern about the inconsistent and unexpected nature with which tariffs are implemented.
The reduction in tariffs has led to less of a chance of interest rate cuts this year, with three cuts now expected starting after June.
Of note, egg prices tumbled 12.7% but are still up 49.3% year over year.
