We drill into the difference between inflation rate and cumulative price levels using August 2026 data. Core CPI hit 337.8, meaning prices are still climbing even as the speed slows. We explain why your grocery bill and rent feel stuck at a new normal, not falling back to 2021 levels. This is the math of persistent costs.
