Just went through the latest CPI data. Here's what caught my eye: food prices jumped 0.7% and natural gas service spiked 4.4%. On the surface, the headline number looks tame—but that's only because oil and used car prices took a hit. Strip those out and you see the real picture: everyday living costs are actually climbing. That's the disconnect nobody talks about enough.

The cost of real life is rising rapidly, but the data is lying. When oil prices fall, inflation appears to be moderate.

Just say it, those mainstream data are all smoke and mirrors. Food and gas are the real expenses draining wallets.

The money in my wallet is depreciating, but we still have to keep buying groceries, right?

The real story behind the plunge in oil prices and used car prices is the soaring cost of daily living—this trick is played so smoothly.

When oil prices and used car prices drop, it gives the central bank an excuse to be complacent—truly brilliant. Food and energy are the real killers.

The decline in traditional car prices is just to save the market; real prices have already skyrocketed.
