Inflation in the U.S. dropped to 3.1% in January, somewhat above forecasts of 2.9%.

The president of the United States, Joe Biden, took advantage of this Sunday's Super Bowl to insist on his offensive against supermarkets and food manufacturers. Biden explained on social networks that manufacturers camouflaged price increases by reducing the size of the packaging, which is known as reduflation. Inflation has been contained, but the price level has not fallen, which partly explains why Biden is barely reaping the benefits of the soft landing.
