The latest inflation readings are throwing a wrench into expectations for swift economic improvement. Data quality issues are complicating the picture—these aren't just marginal revisions but substantive problems that undermine confidence in the headline numbers. When the underlying metrics don't align cleanly, it becomes harder to declare an early victory on affordability. The gap between what policymakers hoped for and what the actual figures show is widening, which has real implications for how markets digest economic signals going forward. This kind of uncertainty tends to keep traders and investors cautious, especially when building positions around macro assumptions.

Inflation data has once again disappointed, and it feels like this round is really not that simple.

The data has changed again, and this time even the basic indicators don't match... I hear they're adjusting expectations once more?

With such poor data, no wonder the market is reacting so cautiously... Where's the promised inflation decline?

The data is starting to get creative again. I really can't understand how these official numbers are generated.

All the data is fake. The Federal Reserve should have admitted defeat long ago. Why are they still fooling themselves?
