The headline inflation number just had its best month in six years. Look at the number the Fed actually watches most closely, and June looks like nothing happened at all.

Every dollar you own is being replaced
Something strange is happening to your money.
It wasn't voted on. It wasn't debated in the Senate. And most Americans have no idea it's even taking place but…
President Trump is replacing the U.S. dollar.
Not with crypto. Not with a digital currency. Something far bigger than that – and it's already been signed and sealed in the back rooms of D.C., ready to be issued by the U.S. Treasury.
Bypassing every legal and political channel under the guise of "national security," Trump has enacted this total money reset using a landmark executive order (1421).
Whether you’re a Democrat or Republican, whether you support this new money or not, it doesn't matter.
Soon, every U.S. citizen will be forced to use Trump's New Dollar to fill their gas tank, buy groceries, and pay medical bills.
Which is why I've produced a critical new documentary laying out exactly what Trump's New Dollar means for your savings, your investments, and your family's financial future.
Detailing three important steps you can take today to prepare – including the name of a core band of assets connected to Trump’s initiative that could surge as a result.
As you’ll see in my briefing, the last time America reset its money like this – under Richard Nixon’s presidency in the 1970s – it created one of the greatest wealth divides in the history of our nation.
On one side, it minted an average of 1,300 new millionaires a day for over half a century. And on the other… the folks left behind, drowning in debt, with no idea how to use America’s new money to create wealth.
As Trump rolls out his new dollar, the question is:
Good investing,

PS. If you’re wondering what Trump’s new money will look like, when it will be issued, what it means for your investments – all of those questions are answered in my briefing.
The Headline Number Really Did Drop
The Consumer Price Index fell 0.4% in June, the largest one-month decline since April 2020. On an annual basis, inflation eased to 3.5%, down from 4.2% in May. That's a real, meaningful improvement in the number most people hear on the news, and it's worth acknowledging as genuine progress on paper.
Core Inflation Tells a Completely Different Story
Strip out food and energy, the categories that swing around the most, and core prices didn't move at all in June, flat on the month, still running at 2.6% over the past year. Core inflation is the number the Federal Reserve leans on most heavily precisely because it isn't jerked around by volatile categories. By that measure, June wasn't a month of cooling inflation. It was a month where the underlying trend simply held in place.
One Category Did Almost All the Work
The gap between the headline drop and the flat core number comes down almost entirely to energy. The energy index fell 5.7% in June, a sharp reversal after climbing 3.9% in May, 3.8% in April, and nearly 11% in March. That collapse followed a ceasefire in the Iran conflict that had been pushing oil and gas prices higher for months. Energy's swing was large enough to more than offset continued increases in shelter and food, the two categories that show up in almost every household's budget every single month.
Final Take
A headline inflation number posting its best month since 2020 is going to generate a lot of relieved coverage, and part of that relief is deserved. But the same forces that pushed energy prices up sharply earlier this year, driven by a conflict that has flared and cooled repeatedly, are the same forces that just pushed this month's number down. Shelter and food, the costs most households actually notice, kept climbing the whole time. If oil-driven tensions flare again, and they already have more than once this year, this month's improvement could reverse just as quickly as it appeared.
