Mixed
The text states that 9.8% CPI-U inflation over 39 months has reduced $107,000 in real economic utility from a $1.2 million balance.
Infact verdict: Mixed (48/100).
The claim that 9.8% CPI-U inflation over 39 months has stripped $107,000 in real economic utility from a $1.2 million balance lacks direct evidence. The provided web evidence indicates a cumulative inflation rate of 29.5% from January 2020 to June 2026, which does not align with the claim's specified period or inflation rate. No fact-checks directly address this specific claim, and the calculations for the $107,000 loss are not substantiated by the evidence. Therefore, the claim is not supported by the available data.
