Inflation is headed down. It's not a completely clear picture yet, but I think this is the only reasonable conclusion from the current statistics. Things could change, but right now the arrows all point in the right direction.

The pace of growth has slowed, but it is still growing in absolute terms at multi-decade highs.

YoY inflation for the US:

Jun 22: 9.1% Jul 22: 8.5% Aug 22: 8.3% Sep 22: 8.2% Oct 22: 7.7% Nov 22: 7.1%

The only way I can understand your comment is if you are confusing inflation (change in price level) with price level itself.

Inflation is slowing down and has been for months.

So we've still got high inflation, and the fed seems like it's only got so long until it'll resume pumping money into the economy.
