On June 11, according to CNBC, as the nominal inflation rate in the U.S. reached a three-year high year-over-year, Trump stated that he likes inflation. This remark has sparked controversy. Many analysts interviewed emphasized that the current 'K-shaped economy' issue in the U.S. needs to be taken seriously. The K-shaped economy refers to the diverging economic situations of different groups, resembling the two diverging lines of the letter K, where one segment continues to grow while the other continues to weaken. Recently, before fluctuations in chip stocks began, the U.S. stock market had been on an upward trend, seemingly indifferent to inflation. This has resulted in high-income individuals continuing to perform well, but the latest inflation data indicates that the cost of living pressure is further intensifying for a broader segment of middle- and low-income Americans.
