What Wholesale Inflation at 1.1 Percent Means for Your Wallet

In this episode of Macro Tuesdays, Lucas and Luna drill into the surprising 1.1% jump in wholesale prices for May 2026—the biggest monthly gain in over a year. They connect this producer-price surge to the consumer inflation numbers that hit 4.2% annually, and ask whether the Fed's steady hand on rates is enough. With the ten-year breakeven inflation rate creeping up to 2.31%, the hosts examine how energy costs from the Iran conflict are working their way through the supply chain. If you've felt prices rising faster than the official CPI suggests, this episode explains why. No broad recaps—just one concrete data point and what it means for your purchasing power. #WholesaleInflation #PPI #CPI #Inflation2026 #FederalReserve #EnergyCosts #IranConflict #SupplyChain #BreakevenInflation #CorePCE #MacroEconomics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #MacroTuesdays #LucasAndLuna #ProducerPrices #ConsumerPrices #EconomicData Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
