Eggs are super popular and tasty! Lately, something strange happened. The price of eggs went way up! This is because of a big problem called inflation. Inflation means that things cost more than before. When prices go higher, people start to worry about money. President Trump once had a strong economy. That means people had jobs, and businesses were doing well. But now, inflation is making things harder. Investors, which are people who put money into businesses to make it grow, are getting nervous. They don’t like it when prices keep rising. Recently, there was a report called the Consumer Price Index, or C.P.I. It showed that prices are rising faster than expected. The goal is to keep prices low, ideally around 2%, but now they are rising at 4.5%. This is a big problem! When prices change a lot, it can affect how people feel about spending their money. If people spend less, businesses might not earn as much, and the economy could slow down. That can make it tough for everyone. Another interesting thing is happening with a person named Elon Musk. He said he might stop trying to buy a company called OpenAI. He would do this if they changed from being a nonprofit to wanting to make money. There’s also a new law being talked about. A person named Representative Riley Moore wants to change how credit card companies track gun stores. This means gun stores could hide what they sell. So, all around, prices are rising. President Trump is trying to keep the economy strong, but inflation is making it tricky. People are watching closely to see what will happen next!
