In each episode, Lucas traces a specific indicator—say, the core PCE deflator or the ISM manufacturing index—while Luna challenges the consensus interpretation, pushing toward the second-order effects that get lost in the headline numbers. They never just report the data; they argue about its signal-to-noise ratio, its revisions history, and its predictive track record. This is a show for the analyst, the portfolio manager, the economist, or the business leader who needs to interpret economic releases faster and more skeptically than the press releases. Lucas and Luna hold each other accountable to the numbers, calling out the difference between statistical noise and genuine turning points. Each episode closes with one unresolved tension: a data point that defies easy narrative, a lagging indicator that might be about to flip, or a policy response that could scramble the forecast. If you want to know not just what the data said today, but whether it matters for your next decision, this is the conv…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-18T12:21:16.733869+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/economic-indicators-with-fexingo-gdp-cpi-pmi-and-reading-the-macro-data-7871725"},"episode":{"title":"Why Wholesale Prices Just Dropped But CPI Is Still Sticky","slug":"why-wholesale-prices-just-dropped-but-cpi-is-still-sticky","published_at":"2026-07-15T18:15:23+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/economic-indicators-with-fexingo-gdp-cpi-pmi-and-reading-the-macro-data-7871725/why-wholesale-prices-just-dropped-but-cpi-is-still-sticky","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/economic-indicators-with-fexingo-gdp-cpi-pmi-and-reading-the-macro-data-7871725","url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/economic-indicators/episode-0116.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/economic-indicators/episode-0116.mp3","summary":"In this episode of Economic Indicators with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna examine the surprising June wholesale price decline announced on July 15, 2026, and what it tells us about where inflation is really headed. With producer prices falling 0.3% month-over-month, the duo explores why consumer prices rose 3.5% annually—less than expected—and what this divergence means for the Fed's next move. They dig into the role of gasoline volatility, services inflation, and the bond market's reaction as the 10-year breakeven rate sits at 2.25%. If you've ever wondered why the Fed focuses on PCE over CPI, or why wholesale and retail prices don't move in lockstep, this episode offers a clear, data-driven breakdown. No hot takes—just the numbers and what they imply for your portfolio and the economy through mid-2026. #ProducerPriceIndex #WholesalePrices #CPI #CoreInflation #GasolinePrices #ServicesInflation #FedPolicy #BreakevenRate #BondMarket #TenYearTreasury #EconomicIndicators #June2026 #InflationTrends #PortfolioStrategy #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #MacroData Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"In this episode of Economic Indicators with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna examine the surprising June wholesale price decline announced on July 15, 2026, and wh…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":452,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/economic-indicators-with-fexingo-gdp-cpi-pmi-and-reading-the-macro-data-7871725/episodes/why-wholesale-prices-just-dropped-but-cpi-is-still-sticky/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/economic-indicators-with-fexingo-gdp-cpi-pmi-and-reading-the-macro-data-7871725/why-wholesale-prices-just-dropped-but-cpi-is-still-sticky.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
