It will be particularly humorous when the king confiscates your account because he can.

What a difference perspective makes. Financial press (Bloomberg and WSJ) are reporting this morning’s inflation prints as undershoots. Yields are down and equities are up in markets. So markets are interpreting this as soft inflation data.

I just ordered some euros for an upcoming trip and was shocked by how much the value of the dollar had fallen since I went to Europe last summer.

Just like they did in Cypress. Your money, which is just digits in a database, can be wiped out or transferred and there is nothing you can do about it but complain to guys with guns pointed at you.

markets are up because rising inflation increases the odds of Fed rate cuts in September.

Other way around. Markets are up (and yields are down) because softer than expected inflation data increases odds of a Fed Rate cut this year.
