The nation seems to be awakening from a bad dream with President Trump back in office and even CNN cannot deny the latest great economic news.
“Inflation slowed more than expected in February and cooled for the first time in five months,” the outlet noted, though quickly cautioning that “progress may be short lived” due to looming trade tariffs.
But there was no denying the latest numbers as the Consumer Price Index was 2.8% in February, “a cooldown from the 3% annual rate notched in January, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics released Wednesday,” CNN noted, a “better than expected” outcome.
CNN: “Finally, we have some good news on the economy… both of these figures were a step in the right direction, and BOTH were better than expected… this actually breaks a streak of four straight months where the inflation rate was going in the wrong direction.” pic.twitter.com/aSfyscZAKq

“February’s inflation numbers came in better than expected thanks in part to two big — and very welcome — reasons: Grocery prices were flat for the month and gas prices fell,” CNN reported.

The report had an effect on Wall Street where US stocks rallied after three weeks of declining.
“February’s core CPI came in better than expected as well, rising 0.2% for the month (from 0.4% in January) and slowing to 3.1% annually from 3.2%,” CNN pointed out, adding that Core CPI “is at its lowest annual rate in nearly four years.”
BREAKING: February CPI inflation FALLS to 2.8%, below expectations of 2.9%.
Core CPI inflation FALLS to 3.1%, below expectations of 3.2%.
This marks the first decline in both Headline and Core CPI since July 2024.
Inflation is cooling down in the US.

A testament to the direct correlation of reduced government spending seen in reduced CPI. Right off the bat. When production kicks in from re-shoring manufacturing, GDP is going to rally up too.

After months of economic mismanagement, even CNN admits things are improving. Strong policies lead to real results, not media spin. Lower inflation is good, but true recovery means lasting stability, energy independence, and a focus on American workers. Let’s keep pushing for…

I was told by the left that egg prices wouldn’t come down. They did. I was told gasoline and oil prices wouldn’t come down. They did. I was told inflation wouldn’t come down. It did. I was told illegal immigration wouldn’t stop. It did. I was told the border couldn’t be…
