Inflation is still at over 3% which is well above the fed target... but again, there is already talk about revising that to a standard rate lol as opposed to 2%. Prices are up dramatically over 3 years and wage growth didn't keep up...

Wage stabilizing is a good thing. Wages skyrocketing like they were the past year and a half was driving inflation up.
Shelter is 1/3rd 'core' CPI and is just now being accounted for since it's a lagging number. 3% inflation is fine and the Fed is fine with that.
My guess is rates are cut beginning in March next year
