The article from The New York Times, published on November 27, 2024, discusses the economic implications of recent inflation data and its potential impact on financial markets and political landscapes. It highlights how the latest Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index, a key measure of inflation, has influenced market expectations regarding Federal Reserve actions on interest rates. The piece delves into the concept of "Trumponomics," analyzing how former President Trump's economic policies might affect inflation and economic growth if he were to return to office.
