Inflation

Inflation is a market topic in economics that SentiSense tracks across news and social media.

About

Inflation is a market topic covering the general rise in the prices of goods and services, which the Bureau of Labor Statistics tracks in the United States through the Consumer Price Index, published monthly. The Federal Open Market Committee states that inflation of 2 percent a year, measured by the price index for personal consumption expenditures, is most consistent over the longer run with its mandate; it adopted that goal in January 2012. Investors follow it because price changes shape central bank policy, interest rates and company costs.
