Both independent inflation trackers are now under the 2% target:
US CPI: 1.56% US PCE: 1.78%
What really stands out to me is how this data is gathered.
The BLS still relies on tens of thousands of surveys that have to be processed manually by government staff.
Meanwhile, Truflation is pulling 35+ million real-time prices every day and calculating inflation automatically.
Old system: slow, limited samples, heavy bureaucracy.
New system: live data, massive scale, instant updates.
Feels like we’re literally watching legacy finance collide with modern data tech in real time.
