Treasury Secretary Yellen: It's a tremendous mistake to focus on minor fluctuations in CPI

  • Treasury Secretary Yellen speaking in Detroit

Wearing her Treasury Secretary hat, former Fed Chair Yellen is on the wires saying:

  • It takes tremendous mistake to focus on minor fluctuations in the CPI
  • Prices of gasoline, eggs, cars and trucks have declined. Inflation overall is coming back down to normal levels
  • Americans are starting to feel better about the economy.
  • We know there's more work to do, but good jobs are being created all over the United States

"Tremendous mistake"? I get it, but a "tremendous" mistake. It wasn't long ago that there was talk of not making the mistake of the 1970s or that we are "watching the data". Just saying....
