We have the S&P 500 prediction thread, how about one for the inflation rate by end of 2023? As we know the market does not equal the economy.
Use the official US govt published number (based on CPI-U). Also the 12 month avg rate, not the Dec 2023 monthly rate. I know that the actual 2023 year end result won't be available until mid Jan 2024. We don't have the current 2022 year end result as of this initial post, but it is currently 7.1% for the 12 month avg based on Nov 2022 results.
No poll. Just your prediction number. What do you think inflation will be by year end?
My prediction is 5.1% as I think recession next year will slow down inflation.
