Pulse on Payrolls and Prices
from Moody's Talks - Inside Economics Hosted by Mark Zandi, Dante DeAntonio, Matt Colyar, Cris deRitis, Marisa DiNatale
Together at last. In a rare joint performance, Dante and Matt join the Inside Economics crew to unpack January’s jobs and CPI reports. The brief federal government shutdown delayed economic data releases a few days, which made for a loaded slate this week. Dante shares his impression of January’s seemingly strong jobs report and then the team plays the stats game. A brief hiatus did not affect Marisa’s ability to dominate. Matt then goes through the first inflation data of 2026, and where it looks like inflation is headed in the coming months.
