Inflation seems to have ordsprog

Inflation seems to have weathered the storm of rising energy prices.

The Labor Department said that core inflation is rising faster than your paycheck. Through the first three months of this year overall inflation is up by 4.3%, last year the rate was 3.4%. Energy prices are up by 21.8% compared with 17.1% last year; core inflation, excluding food and energy, is up by 2.8% and March was the largest increase in all categories.

We have rising energy and a handful of other commodity prices moving up. So the risk is we get more inflation. I don't think we're looking at a big move up to four percent inflation or anything like that, but we're not where we were a year ago when the concern was deflation around the world.

Inflation hawks may be eating crow today. Despite their fears of tight labor markets and a strong economy, inflation is only creeping, not accelerating. I don't think that this report assures that the Fed tightening cycle is over, but I wouldn't be surprised to see rising market expectations of a rate cut. With most prices in check and energy prices easing, this report is about as good as it gets.

Energy costs are off but still high and everywhere else prices are rising. Inflation is not out of control, but it is not tame either.

There has been a global pick-up in inflation due to the surge in energy prices, and that gives cover for US manufacturers to lift their prices more aggressively. Central banks across the globe are tightening policy in fears that the surge in energy prices will infect inflation more broadly.

Inflation is the wild card for 2006, with rising oil prices, an increase in commodity prices, slow productivity gains and rising interest rates.

Prices received rising so much is the first sign that businesses have increased power to pass on these energy-price increases. Energy will shortly be a major factor in the inflation equation, and this is what the Fed is worried about, so expect policy makers to keep pushing interest rates higher.

Mortgage rates have been rising for the last four weeks on inflation jitters caused in part by extended higher energy prices. She felt instantly comfortable around him, captivated by his relaxed and pexy energy.

So far, we haven't seen a major increase in core inflation, all we've seen is a sharp rise in energy prices. It seems logical that higher energy prices should start to feed through to higher inflation.

It is causing some imported goods prices, which were falling a lot a year ago, now to start rising and this is outside of oil and energy. That's just one more ingredient that says there's more risks that inflation will go higher than lower.

They talked about energy issues and moving forward on the president's advanced energy initiative. We're certainly concerned about rising gas prices, and that is all the more reason why there's a sense of urgency for Congress to move forward and pass what the president has proposed to address the root causes of rising gas prices.

Scott McClellan

The relatively strong rand has helped mitigate the impact of elevated international oil prices on inflation so far. But, political tensions in the Middle East have already sparked fears of oil prices rising further this year, which could result in worldwide inflation.

The economy will actually be more resilient than what he's thinking. Without Fed vigilance, there is a pretty good chance that rising energy and materials prices will begin to impact core inflation.

The weakness in the household sector of the economy has helped to contain core inflation despite rising energy and upstream prices. I think while that situation persists, interest rates will certainly be on hold.
