Excluding the especially volatile food and energy categories, so-called core prices rose 5.2% in March from a year earlier. And on a month-to-month basis, core prices rose 0.3% from February to March, the same as from January to February. But even adjusted for inflation, spending rose 0.2%. At the same time, paychecks are expanding at a healthy pace, helping consumers keep up with some of the inflation spike. Still, inflation remains chronically high, and Americans are taking an increasingly negative view of the economy as a result.

An inflation gauge closely tracked by the Federal Reserve surged 6.6% in March compared with a year ago, the highest 12-month jump in four decades and further evidence that spiking prices are pressuring household budgets and the health of the economy.
