    While this is good news, remember that this means that prices are still increasing due to inflation, just at a slower rate now. It does NOT mean that inflation has been reversed.

      Not sure why there are down votes here. It’s an important fact to remember that inflation “falling” doesn’t mean the cost of living is going down.

      Whether reversing inflation is good or not isn’t their point. The point is, living is still more expensive than last year and your wage hasn’t been keeping up since the 70s.
