This Was the Point of NO return (CPI Breakdown)
Description
This was supposed to be all about "inflation" and instead everything is coming up jobs - including the latest CPI report. From Home Depot's most recent admission to now US refiners taking drastic steps to avoid getting caught with an energy glut (yep, that's right), the entire economy flipped from "sticky inflation" to Uh-Oh over employment.
