CPI inflation numbers are higher

Well eating crow for March. For some of the same reasons, ie gasoline prices, probably not eating crow for April.

NYT headline

Consumer prices increased 8.5% in the year through March, pushed to the fastest inflation rate since 1981 by gas costs and higher rents.

But gas is not the entire story. Stripping out volatile fuel and food, so-called core prices climbed 6.5 percent in the year through March, up from 6.4 percent in the year through February, also a brisk pace.

Sorry about that. I was determined to eat crow when appropriate.
