BREAKING NEWS: Inflation holds grip on US economy in October as prices remain stubbornly high
PGIM co-chief investment officer Greg Peters weighs what the future of the economy will look like following the Fed’s sixth rate hike.
Inflation continued to run near a multi-decade high in October as persistent prices squeezed millions of U.S. households and small businesses. The Labor Department said Thursday that the consumer price index, a broad measure of the price for everyday goods including gasoline, groceries and rents, rose 0.4% in October from the previous month. Prices climbed 7.7% on an annual basis.
Those figures were both lower than the 8% headline figure and 0.5% monthly increase forecast by Refinitiv economists.
