South Korea consumer sentiment drops as food inflation emerges as top election issue | The Asahi Shimbun: Breaking News, Japan News and Analysis
asahi.com/ajw/articles/15210154
Quick Glance: South Korea: Consumer Sentiment Declines Due to Food Inflation
- South Korea's consumer sentiment dropped sharply in March due to rising concerns over food prices, becoming a significant political issue in the upcoming elections.
- The consumer sentiment index decreased to 100.7 in March from 101.9 in February, marking the largest monthly decline since October, according to the Bank of Korea's regular consumer survey.
- Higher prices of agricultural products have been linked in part to adverse weather conditions, with the opposition Democratic Party (DP) criticizing President Yoon Suk Yeol's administration for economic mismanagement.
- In response to the situation, the government has implemented measures such as subsidies and reduced tariffs on imported agricultural goods to curb inflation.

Biden and Trump ask voters if they're 'better off' than they were 4 years ago. It's complicated
apnews.com/article/biden-trump-voters-pandemic-era-economy-inflation-597f4f2f2b2e32d8933802e37ef66913
Quick Glance: Biden Contrasts Himself with Trump Through 'Are You Better Off Today' Question
- President Joe Biden used the 'are you better off today than you were four years ago' question as a new line of attack against former President Donald Trump, reminding voters of the challenges during Trump's term.
- Biden also criticized Trump for his 'bloodbath' comment, emphasizing the need to reject political violence. He redirected the narrative by focusing on the 'better off' theme and highlighted the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S.
- Furthermore, Biden underscored the progress made since Trump's presidency, including COVID-19 control, the return of 15 million jobs, and stock market recovery. Biden's campaign sees a resurgence of interest in a Biden-Trump rematch among voters.
- The article also mentions Biden's comments on U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz and his support for Rep. Colin Allred, positioning Cruz as an ally of Trump. Biden conveyed the message that the focus should be on Trump's intentions and actions, rather than on himself.

Quick Glance: Inflation Decline and Consumer Impact
- Inflation in Germany continues to decline, primarily due to cheaper energy prices. Experts predict a further decrease in the year ahead, but with potential challenges. Higher inflation rates diminish consumer purchasing power.
- In February, energy and fuels decreased in price, while food prices increased. Services also became more expensive. Consumer prices rose by 0.4 percent compared to the previous month.
- The German government forecasts rising consumer prices and wage increases above the inflation rate. The expectation is that employees will spend the money and boost private consumption. However, the Bundesbank President warns against premature interest rate cuts.
- Despite the decline in inflation, the Bundesbank cautions against premature interest rate cuts. The European Central Bank aims for price stability in the medium term. Higher interest rates can curb demand but also burden the economy.
