Pinched by inflation, consumers are buying less at grocery stores: Restaurants and big-box stores appear to be siphoning away sales

Pinched by inflation, consumers are buying less at grocery stores
Quick Glance: Wealthy households fuel inflation, making life unaffordable for others.
  • One in every four people could not afford a $500 surprise expense, but overall spending on restaurant meals, travel, and jewelry is holding up well.

  • Wage increases - ironically to offset inflation - and resilient spending on goods and services are among the reasons why inflation is taking so long to control.

  • That is the only way inflation will subside sufficiently to allow interest rates to fall.

  • In order for inflation to return to the bank's target rate of 2%, "the effects of higher interest rates need to work through the economy and restrain spending enough for supply to catch up."
