The latest November CPI report is riddled with gaps—much like a block of Swiss cheese. Tariff costs continue their gradual but steady infiltration into CPI figures and consumer prices. This ongoing price pressure through tariff pass-through remains a critical factor shaping inflation expectations and market dynamics moving forward.

CPI like Swiss cheese? Ha, now the tariff costs are really slowly eating away at prices, it feels like the wallet is going to shrink again, how are we supposed to live like this?

The metaphor of Swiss cheese holes is brilliant, but to put it simply, it’s still the ghost of tariffs causing trouble, and consumers' wallets are going to shrink again.

Tariffs are really the worst. Gradually eroding them like this will make consumers end up paying more for everything they buy.

Tariffs are really like boiling a frog in warm water; it's obvious from the data.

Tariffs are really a trap, gradually seeping into prices, and consumers' money is becoming less and less valuable.
