How the Fed's Rate Pause Is Widening the Inflation Gap

Episode 44 of Inflation and Your Money with Fexingo zeroes in on a growing pain lurking in the data: the gap between what inflation is doing and what the Fed is doing. With CPI still at 334 and the Fed Funds rate stuck at 3.65 percent, Lucas and Luna break down why the central bank's pause is hitting savers and borrowers asymmetrically. They discuss how the interest on reserve balances (IORB) may be distorting the real economy, why gold has dropped 5.5 percent in five days despite sticky inflation, and what the 10-year breakeven inflation rate of 2.34 percent actually signals for your portfolio. Using concrete numbers from June 2026, they explain the mechanics of negative real yields, the silent wealth transfer from cash holders to the banking system, and one practical move listeners can make to protect purchasing power without chasing risk. No fluff, no predictions—just a clear-eyed look at where policy and prices are diverging and what that means for your wallet. #Inflation #FederalReserve #RatePause #PurchasingPower #CPI #RealYields #Gold #BreakevenInflation #Savers #Borrowers #IORB #NegativeRealRates #PortfolioStrategy #TIPS #WealthTransfer #Finance #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
