1. One way pharma companies block competition and inflate the cost of medicines is by filing bogus patent listings. Today @FTC challenged over 300 junk patent listings, including for blockbuster weight-loss & type 2 diabetes drugs Ozempic and Victoza. ftc.gov/news-events/ne…
Auto insurance in PPI, which is what goes into PCE, came in much cooler than CPI in March month-to-month: 0.1%, versus CPI's 2.6%. That difference alone will shave ~10bps off of monthly core PCE in March relative to core CPI.
Core CPI inflation comes in at 0.36% MM, the same monthly rate as last month. Markets were expecting ~0.27%. Year-on-year core CPI inflation was 3.80% this month, versus 3.75% in February. A few observations. /1
Nothing to see here. Underlying inflation in core CPI (blue) - services inflation x/ owners' equivalent rent, healthcare & transport - is well very behaved in the March data. We're on the tail-end of start-of-year price resets now. Inflation will slow sharply in April data...
For years, Congressional Republicans said they wanted to secure the border. President Biden and his team worked for months with a group of bipartisan Senators to reach a historic bipartisan border deal. And then, Congressional Republicans just walked away.
Absolutely wild that this is presented as something the drug companies are doing and not a law that the Biden admin passed.

Today, Jill and I mourn the loss of Ady Barkan and offer our deepest condolences to Rachael, Carl, and Willow during such a difficult time. He turned his pain into purpose and, in turn, inspired optimism in the hearts of countless people living with ALS and their loved ones…
Farewell, beautiful soul. politico.com/magazine/story…
Hi all, this is Ady’s wife, Rachael. I’m devastated to share the news that Ady has died from complications of ALS. You probably knew Ady as a healthcare activist. But more importantly he was a wonderful dad and my life partner for 18 years. [1/4]
It’s rare to see a more self-defeating “offset” than imposing spending cuts that add to the deficit. This was fairly predictable as the IRS money was originally scored as a deficit reducer.

“That is theater. I will tell you, the guy who picks up the trash in my office won’t get a paycheck. That’s real.” — OMB Director Shalanda Young, when asked about House Speaker McCarthy claiming he won't take a salary during the government shutdown and if Biden will do the same

A first: Biden administration uses leverage to require #Regeneron to charge no more in the US for a future #Covid monoclonal than it does in economic peer countries. @statnews' @rachelcohrs reports. statnews.com/2023/09/13/cov…
Paul Friedrichs is going to be the inaugural director of the White House Office of Pandemic Preparedness and Response People who know me know -- I am genuinely thrilled Paul is awesome Let me explain a bit why nytimes.com/2023/07/21/us/…
Two graphs I bet the White House is going to be showing off together a bunch: The U.S. has the highest post-pandemic growth among the G7, and it currently has the lowest inflation (both headline and core).
First on CNN: The White House Council of Economic Advisers has built an apples-to-apples inflation metric that finds inflation in the US is lower than in any other G7 country. cnn.com/2023/06/27/eco… #EconTwitter
