Inflation remained elevated in August, with the Consumer Price Index rising 0.4% for the month and 3.4% over the past 12 months. Core inflation, which excludes food and energy, increased 0.3% in August and 2.4% year over year. Energy was a major contributor to the latest increase: gasoline prices rose 3.9% during the month and accounted for more than one-third of the overall monthly CPI increase.

The recent rise in energy costs is becoming an important part of the inflation story. Gasoline prices were more than 27% higher than a year earlier, while airfare increased nearly 3% in August and more than 23% year over year. Higher diesel, jet fuel and transportation costs also have the potential to work their way through supply chains, increasing the cost of moving food and other goods.

The Federal Reserve raised its benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points on September 16, 2026, bringing the target range to 3.75%–4% - its first rate hike since 2023.

The Federal Open Market Committee approved the move by a unanimous 12–0 vote, citing continued elevated inflation and a resilient labor market.

In its statement, the Committee said inflation "remains elevated" and that the rate action "will support a timelier return to the Committee's 2 percent goal."

Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh said inflation had been "too high ... for too long" and pointed to strong labor market data along with tensions in the Middle East as factors behind the decision.

Updated Fed projections show 16 of 18 committee officials expect at least one more rate hike this year, with four anticipating two more increases; two officials expect the Fed to hold at this single hike.

The U.S. labor market delivered a stronger-than-expected performance in August, with total nonfarm payroll employment increasing by 162,000 jobs, well above economists’ expectations for a gain of 55,000. The unemployment rate remained unchanged at 4.1%, with approximately 7.0 million people unemployed.

Job growth was led by food services and drinking places, which added 59,000 positions, and local government education, which gained 42,000 jobs. Healthcare employment increased by 13,000, while the information sector lost 23,000 positions.

When tragedy strikes, we often think about the emotional toll, but rarely do we consider the financial chaos that can follow. Kenneth R. Feinberg, a renowned attorney and compensation expert, has spent decades administering victim compensation funds for events like 9/11, the Boston Marathon bombing, and the Virginia Tech shootings.

Through his work, he has witnessed firsthand what happens when families are unprepared for the unexpected-and the financial devastation that can follow. His lessons serve as a powerful wake-up call for all of us to take proactive steps in our financial planning.

Every source of income - Social Security, investments, pensions - can be taxed differently.

Coordinating your income sources thoughtfully can make a meaningful difference over time. It’s not about avoiding taxes; it’s about managing them strategically so your plan lasts longer and works smarter.

If you’d like to review how taxes fit into your retirement strategy, let’s talk. (And always consult your professional tax advisor.)
