Egg prices have cooled, and natural gas prices are rising. Plus: tariffs put a damper on inflation — but at a cost — and clothing retailers make it hard for women to find a perfect fit.
New data shows natural gas prices in the U.S. up 10.9% compared to the same time last year. That increase is largely due to a colder winter and higher demands for electricity.
Recent research has found that tariffs can reduce economic activity to a point where inflation starts to fall. But if that happens, the economy would be dealing with much bigger problems.
According to the February CPI report for February, egg prices are down 42%. But don’t put all of them in one basket — other grocery staples got more expensive.
