Recent #inflation is driven more by service price increases than goods, writes NRF’s Executive Director of Research Mark Mathews. In 2021-2022, goods inflation resulted from government stimulus, consumer demand and supply chain issues, not retailer greed.

A quiet moment of preparation, before taking the stage for my keynote at National Retail Federation Protect. Idk about others, but I rehearse my butt off for every keynote, even tho I know the content cold. It’s a privilege to get to do this, and I honor that by doing the best job I possibly can. PS - do you spy the Queen Mary in the background, Long Beach’s iconic sister ship to the Titanic? My room had a front row view of it 🤩 #nrfprotect #hackers #mindset #keynotespeaker
