Elevated interest rates also play into this equation. There might not be much relief on that front given the Federal Reserve\u2019s guidance on interest rates.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inflation has slowed after reaching a 40-year high in June of 2022. It is now hovering at around 3.2 percent, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But inflation might not fall to the Federal Reserve\u2019s 2 percent target level until 2025, according to Bankrate. &nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\uff08A woman checks prices as she shops at a grocery store in Wheeling, Ill., Friday, Jan. 19, 2024. \uff09 Pandemic-era inflation has placed a financial burden on many Americans, but it seems Republicans are more likely than Democrats to say their financial situation has gotten worse over the last three years.
