Producer Prices Surge Most In Over Four Years As BLS Discovers Food Inflation

[Tsing Tao]

"To sum up, a stagnant monthly PPI report means little or nothing to consumers."

Stagnant is good.

First, "good" means beneficial. Stagnant in a position where consumers are struggling, isn't good. I realize you're positively desperate to find some way to spin this, but it's only "good" if it helps consumers. Declining over a period of time would be good - if it made it's way through to the CPI. It hasn't yet - outside of retail gas prices. Wait, there you go, Ricter. A plus - gas prices are down considerably. That's a good for the consumer. Good job, Mr. President - right?

Of course, we haven't even brought declining real wages into this yet.

Yawners, like I said a couple pages ago.

Coming from the girl who had a thread called "Housing rolling along" at the peak of the biggest RE collapse in U.S. history.

You're one dumb bitch.

When gasoline prices are up you're all over it.

And you never mention it.

But I fail to see what this has to do with our PPI discussion. Or have you yielded on that?

I wouldn't mention they're down, either, if you'd stop your shrieking.

I view falling gas prices as more inflationary than rising prices. This is just like the consumer getting a rebate. That extra money is going to find its way into the economy.

LOL!

I wouldn't have commented on PPI, if you hadn't shrieked about it either.
