U.S. wholesale prices surge in July - biggest increase in three years

There are always "huge sales everywhere," except of course only in your version of reality. How come you weren't telling everyone about these "huge sales" last year when you were bemoaning "Bidenomics" and whining daily about inflation and how expensive everything is and how "Americans are suffering"? Hmm? Poor #DeplorableDebbie, unable to maintain integrity or consistency.
It all depends who is in office with these people if it is a DEM everything is bad and they can't see it is getting worse under their Orange GOD,
 
And now Trump is telling his low IQ MAGA followers he is going to cut the price of their meds by over 1500 percent, I guess the pharmaceutical companies will be paying us to take their meds.

Right! It's going to go just the opposite, actually. A goodly amount of our pharmaceuticals are made in India. Guess which country just got slapped with a 50% tariff?

Didn't Trump say he was going to put a 100% tariff on them?
And now he says he is cutting the cost by 1500% .
How do you cut the cost of anything by 1500%?
Unless you are going to make the manufactures give it away,
 

The clearest sign yet tariff inflation is hitting companies: Wholesale prices jumped the most in three years​


The cost of wholesale goods and services — where rising inflation tends to show up first — posted the biggest increase in July in three years, possibly heralding a sizable acceleration in price hikes tied to U.S. tariffs.

The producer-price index jumped 0.9% last month after no change in June, the government said Thursday. The surge was a big surprise to Wall Street.

“We are starting to see that inflationary pressure is bubbling,” said Jennifer Lee, senior economist at BMO Capital Markets.


Horseshit. Consumer costs are the leading indicator of inflation, which is level through July.

basic education = ONLY increases in money supply cause inflation, by definition.

you're dumb.

Good point. Typical day in MAGATFantasyLand:

Customer: Is my heart prescription ready? How much is it?
Pharmacy clerk: Yes, Ms. Strait, it's free! And here's $50 from Pfizer, too!
 
Early morning meltdown are the best...🤣🤣🤣🤣
we're in the eye of the Hurricane now, baby.

there's no stopping this thing.

[Verse 1]
Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a blowtorch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning
So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep


[Pre-Chrous]
It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep
There's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray

[Chorus]
Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one-way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow, I'm neither here nor there

[Verse 2]
Can you help me remember how to smile?
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded?
Life's mystery seems so faded
I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am, just a-drowning in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train

This surge in wholesale prices means companies have been eating the cost of tariffs for now,
:whoa: Crypress is actually BEING HONEST for a change and actually admitting that it is COMPANIES who are EATING THE TARIFFS instead of tariffs being passed onto the consumer??!! :whoa: WHOA!!!!!!!

I tried to tell libtards like you that this is precisely what would happen, but yet they (and you) wouldn't listen to me. That's because they (and you) ignore history. History has already shown us that such tariff policies do NOT result in "huuuuuuuuge retail price increases".
but that is unlikely to last.
Here, you continue to deny history. Keep on fear mongering about tariffs all you want, but the retail price increases "as a result of tariffs" that you fear are simply not going to happen. History has already shown us that it DOESN'T happen that way.

Companies will continue to eat the cost of tariffs. They (generally speaking) already make a SHIT TON of profits, and they already retail their products in a manner that maximizes their profits. They aren't going to mess around with that simply because of tariffs.
 
They are only able to eat so much and when it starts hurting their bottom line they have to start passing some of those increases on to the consumer.
Bullshit. They (generally) make a SHIT TON in profits. They can (and WILL) eat the tariff cost in order to retain access to their consumer base. They will cut off a small slice of their SHIT TON of profits in order to retain access to their consumer base. It would be stupid of them not to.
And just think NOT all of Trump's tariffs have worked through the supply chain and when they do we will be paying a lot more for just about everything we buy.
Continued "Chicken Little" fear mongering.
