Inflation and the Importance of Numbers

We are told that inflation is supposedly around 5%.  But when you consider the importance of numbers you will see how it is all a pack of lies.

 

And it is not by chance that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) – that’s used to measure inflation – DOES NOT include real estate and energy.

 

Those two factors alone should convince you that the inflation numbers are total BS.

 

But to further illustrate our point we will use the CPI numbers and how they try to convince consumers that “Inflation is Under Control.”

 

Let’s start with a box of cereal.

 

Before Bidenomics you could buy a 24-ounce box of cereal for approximately $5.00.  But now that same box of cereal is selling for $5.25.

 

And that is about a 5% increase…in line with the Boyz numbers.

However, that new box of cereal has been reduced in size to an 18-Ounce box instead of 24-Ounce.

 

So, let’s do the math.

 

The original box (at $5.00) divided by 24 ounces equals $0.208 cents per ounce.

Multiply that by 18 ounce (new box) and it comes out to $3.65 for a box of cereal.

 

But the new box is priced at $5.25…and you think it’s only a 5% increase in inflation.

 

No big deal, right?

 

But the difference between $5.25 and $3.65 is $1.35.

 

So, divide the $1.35 into $5.00 and you come up with a 27% increase in the new 18-ounce box of cereal.

 

See how the numbers lie?

 

And you thought that a $0.25 increase was no big deal.

 

Chalk that one up to Bidenomics.

 

 

Importance of Numbers

 

 

If you haven’t figured it out by now then you will have a hard time understanding the importance of numbers…especially when it comes to Inflation and Bidenomics.

 

But if you have figured out the importance of numbers, AND are still thinking:  “What can I do about it?”

 

We have a very simple solution for you.

 

Buy utility stocks.

 

Huh?

 

Yes, it’s that simple.

 

And if you want to know specifically what utility stocks to buy, then you need to read our December “Short and Sweet Tips” column (HERE). 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And for a limited time only you can still get 50% off our normal price for BOTH monthly AND annual membership to our “…In Plain English” newsletter (HERE).

 

But you must use the FALL50 code at the checkout to get the discount.

 

Think of it this way.

 

If you only get one idea that makes you a lot of money OR one idea that saves you from losing a lot of money, then the price of membership is insignificant…especially at a 50% discount (HERE).

 

Share this with a friend…especially if they don’t understand the importance of numbers and Inflation.

They will thank YOU later.

 

And tell them:
