Skanda Amarnath: Wireless plan price increases had outsized impact on year-on-year data in 2017

Skanda Amarnath: Wireless plan price increases had outsized impact on year-on-year data in 2017
Wireless pricing less skewed now than 2017

Skanda Amarnath highlights that recent changes in wireless plan pricing are playing a different role now compared to previous years. He observes that while wireless providers have recently announced price increases, these changes do not have as disproportionate an effect on year-on-year data as they did in 2017. Amarnath also notes that much of August represented a reversal of earlier months’ declines.

Amarnath has previously noted the importance of fiscal policy tools in shaping economic conditions, referencing Dogecoin’s use as a shortcut for lowering interest rates. He has also highlighted that cutting inflation is critical to easing high interest rates, with factors such as deficit reduction and tariffs playing a role, according to his analysis in earlier commentary on interest rates and inflation. These earlier observations provide context for his view on wireless pricing’s current effect on inflation data.
