wholesale prices were up 10.8% over a year ago. that means producers pay more and passing those costs on to us. the consumers. the fed has also signaled it may be ine to raise rates again if inflation remains as high as it is now. >> my colleagues and i are acutely aware that high inflation imposes significant hardship, especially on those least able to meet the higher costs of essentials like food, housing and transportation. we're highly attended to the risks high inflation poses to places both sides of our mandate. and we are strongly committed to returning inflation to our 2% objective. >> the inflation rate is currently at 8.6%. well above that 2% goal. some fear that raising interest rates will lead to another recession. economists say even if a recession can be avoided, the fed will have to inflict some pain most likely in the form of higher unemployment as a way of defeating inflation.

why we're having inflation. our supply of a fuel food parcc is low. and for that there's high demand and that's raising the prices and people that have money that we're able to work during covid next. save money. they now want to go out and spend it. so we're seeing those kind of pressure is put out there. but federal reserve is indicating that they are going to be hawkish, an aggressive that will start to camp or the inflation rate down because people stop spending. >> so this already caused stocks to go down, which impacts retirement plans. and the once hot housing market which cool too. but what does this all mean for the rest of us with little savings, financial planner george machete, who you saw there recommend spending less so cooking your own meals, ditching the car and paying your credit cards down or transferring it over to another bank for a lower interest rate. so we're still missing one key factor before declaring a recession. our employment rate nationwide is pretty low at 3.6%. so there
