Konczal has previously highlighted that CPI readings are understating the severity of U.S. inflation, as the gap with core PCE remains persistent this month in his article CPI remains well below PCE. He also observed that job openings currently outnumber the unemployed, in contrast with the situation in 2025, as detailed in Job openings outnumber unemployed compared to 2025 situation.
