I mean, we've seen this before after Russia invaded Ukraine that gas prices end up being a billboard for the way the economy is faring.

And when you see in so many parts of the country the price for a gallon of gasoline compounding day after day after day, that has a real psychological impact on top of the impact when people are actually filling up at the pump and having to insert their credit card.

And we know that people, you know, react with their vote on this affordability, especially when it came to the basics like housing costs and gas and food played a major role in a how people felt and be how people voted in the last election.

And I think we can expect that that is going to remain a really prevalent part of the midterm conversation unless people start to feel real relief, not just in the current price level, but something that feels like it's actually going to stick.

You know, one thing that's making the inflation fight and the Fed's job a little trickier right now is the cost of housing.

In the CPI report, it's referred to as shelter costs, which is basically rent and what homeowners would pay if they were renting.

We saw that measure shoot up during the pandemic and had been cooling off for a while.

But over the last three months, it's kind of stalled out, stuck at about a 3 percent annual increase.

Now, that might sound discouraging, but there are signs that those shelter costs could come down soon.
