"This morning, stock markets are up after better-than-expected inflation numbers were released by the federal government. According to latest inflation data, consumer prices in America rose at a 3.3% rate, which is slower than the 3.4% rate that was recorded in April. Economists, however, predicted that the Consumer Price Index would increase by .1% and have an annual gain of 3.4%. That turned out to be untrue.
In addition, prices were flat across America, making this the first time that the Consumer Price Index did not rise on a monthly basis. It is becoming clearer with each passing report out of the Department of Labor that the Biden Administration's policies to combat inflation are working, defying expectations in the process.
This is nothing new for this Administration. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, many economists predicted that President Biden would oversee a recession in America given how high inflation was. President Biden inherited an economy that was bleeding jobs due to the failures during the Trump Administration.
Instead of succumbing to the expectations from economists, the Biden Administration has repeatedly defied all expectations, adding hundreds of thousands of new jobs each month, and seeing inflation slow across the board for American families."
Another Democratic president cleans up yet another Republican economic mess.
