Groceries Fell, Fuel Rose

This week, gasoline rose 9.1% in a single month. Aki: and the rest? Bolt: half the whole rise in prices was gasoline; a gallon is $4.33, against $2.98 before the war. Lord Ozen: behold, everything costs more, even the bread! Aki: groceries fell, fuel rose. Grocery prices were down 0.1% in September.

Gasoline did most of September's inflation: pump prices rose 9.1% in the month, more than half of the whole rise in the consumer price index, and are up 34% in a year; a gallon was $4.33 on Wednesday against $2.98 the day before the Iran war began, diesel $6.30 against $3.76, while grocery prices fell 0.1% in the month.
