Latest / Inflation Explained with Fexingo: CPI, Prices, and the Cost of Living for Everyday People
Why Your Buying Habits Are Trapped by Inflation Psychology
Inflation is falling, but consumers still feel squeezed. Lucas and Luna explore a 2026 behavioural economics study showing that once prices rise, they anchor our sense of 'normal' — and even when CPI drops, we don't adjust spending. They discuss the 'anchoring effect' on rent, streaming, and groceries, and why the June CPI of 3.5% feels worse than the math suggests. A data-driven look at why your wallet hasn't caught up to the headlines.
