🚨GRAVE: OS PREÇOS INVENTADOS SUBIRAM. A INFLAÇÃO CAIU. Tenho uma péssima notícia para quem resolveu provar que o mercado está caro com imagens feitas por IA: A prévia da inflação caiu 0,40% em agosto. Foi a maior queda do IPCA-15 em quatro anos e o resultado ficou abaixo de todas as projeções reunidas pela Reuters. A conta de luz foi o principal fator, mas a comida dentro de casa caiu 0,97%. A gasolina, 1,23%. O etanol, 3,63%. Todas as 11 regiões pesquisadas registraram deflação. Desconsiderando o impacto da energia, os demais itens ainda somaram cerca de 0,14 ponto de deflação. Em 12 meses, o IPCA-15 caiu de 4,52% para 4,24% e ficou abaixo do teto de 4,5% usado como referência para a meta do IPCA. Quando subia, era Lula entrando pessoalmente no mercado para trocar as etiquetas. Agora que caiu, Lula desaparece e tudo vira clima, safra e Itaipu. O carrinho de compras fake era de IA. A deflação, não. #Inflação #Brasil #Economia
