Eh not much there. Trumps allies say this. His detractors say that
Inflation is a slow moving measure. It’s in a pretty defined range and you can see that ship move month by month in a direction
Market is not reacting the way it is because inflation is annualized at 2.8 2.9 or 3.0. Nope

Five minutes into the first quarter and we're behind by three points. The game's over, time to leave.
