The Daily Money
 
Wednesday, November 9

Welcome back to another Daily Money! Happy day after Election Day. The suspense from yesterday is going to last a lot longer as Georgia's Senate race is set for a runoff in December. That race could end up deciding which party controls the Senate (and yes, it's very much 2020 deja vu).

In non-election news, you may have read about more employers testing out four-day workweeks to combat burnout and boost productivity. But what about a three-day workweek? This Chick-fil-A started experimenting with one in February and it has some interesting results.

What to expect from CPI tomorrow 

Another crucial inflation report is due tomorrow. Annual inflation is expected to dip from 8.2% to 8%. Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, is also expected to dip slightly. 

What does that mean for the Fed's big decision next month? A lot. 

The Fed still says its target level of annual inflation is 2%. But at its last meeting, the central bank hinted at smaller rate hikes in recognition that its consecutive 75 basis point hikes have caused parts of the economy, such as the housing market, to slow.

The smaller rate hikes could buy consumers extra time to tidy up their finances, but the pain is still coming.
