December inflation came in softer than expected. The headline CPI printed at +0.31% month-over-month and +2.7% year-over-year, while the core gauge—stripping out volatile food and energy prices—climbed 0.24% MoM and 2.6% YoY. These milder-than-anticipated figures could ease some pressure on monetary policy expectations and warrant attention from traders positioning portfolios across risk assets.

Inflation data softens, the central bank might breathe a sigh of relief, but what about our wallets?

Inflation isn't as bad as I thought, but I still don't quite believe it.

Inflation isn't as scary anymore, but can we really trust it...
