CPI hits 2.3%, less than expected
The consumer price index, which measures the costs for a broad range of goods and services, rose a seasonally adjusted 0.2% for the month, putting the 12-month inflation rate at 2.3%, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said. The monthly reading was in line with the Dow Jones consensus estimate and a bit below the annual forecast for 2.4%.

Hey Mr. Market come and get ’em! Iron Flies have a chance if these take some heat Friday.
Sold SPY May 16 2025 570.0 Puts @ 1.67
SPX
Watching for Friday. Had originally sold a few 5700/5705 call spreads and told Mr. Market to come get ’em. LOL He listened. Sometime last week when they started taking some real heat I added the put spread side setting up an iron fly. Still an outside shot at gains but minimizing loss.
Now:
SPX May 16 2025 5695/5700/5700/5705 Iron Flies @ 3.65
No problem taking this loss with all the gains the rally has made. Mr. Market listened to me (for once)!
