I think their target is actually 1-3%, which is normally just an excuse to be slightly over 3%.

I guess your markets are flooded with goods that got hit by American tariffs.

Missed this comment. That's an interesting point. I wonder if producers are shipping less to the US and trying to sell more domestically.

I've heard about lots of American products just sitting around at ports, because the reciprocal tariffs made them unprofitable to export. Presumably, stuff like that's happening everywhere.

Try the statistics are the same kind as OBiden’s. It looks like this is a world-wide effort of the same statisticians.

Are these the same kind of statistics as those coming out of the US BLS under the OBiden administration? I note that they have been mutating over time to something less recognizable but more realistic. Maybe Carney is doing his magical motherWEFer thing.
