Inflation trends and its uneven impact on households
Inflation has mostly stayed under 3 percent as measured by the Consumer Price Index, but prices for food and energy rose faster. In the past decade overall inflation stayed low while medical costs and college tuition rose at well above average rates, echoing higher gains in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
Why Inflation Matters for Retirement Planning
Inflation affects future expenses and retirement spending. Your lifestyle depends on your savings at retirement and withdrawal pace. While recent inflation has been low, future rates are uncertain and can impact investments, raising rates, lowering bond values, and pressuring stock prices.
Inflation and retirement planning guidance for fixed income
The guidance stresses considering inflation in investment planning, using a realistic inflation expectation, and preparing for rising costs such as healthcare. It suggests meeting with a financial professional, notes that non deposit investment products are offered through CUSO Financial Services, and warns they are not federally insured and carry investment risk.
