The Quality Trap in Modern Stagflation
From Stagflation Conversations with Fexingo: High Inflation, Slow Growth, and 1970s Echoes · 8:52
Show by Fexingo
Lucas and Luna dissect the 'quality trap' driving today's stagflationary pressures. With core CPI holding at 338.9 and real GDP growth slowing despite strong job numbers, they explore how companies are boosting margins by shrinking product sizes rather than raising prices outright. Using data from October 2026 labor markets and recent consumer price indices, the hosts analyze why this strategy fuels inflation without delivering growth, leaving workers with less value for their wages while the broader economy stagnates. #Stagflation #Inflation #Economics #CoreCPI #Productivity #ConsumerPrices #LaborMarket #GDP #Wages #BusinessStrategy #SupplyChain #PricingPower #ValuePerUnit #OctoberJobsReport #RealGrowth #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #EconomicAnalysis Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
