307.026 → 3.665%, resolves NO @XComhghall

@chrisjbillington Wow, it was actually close. I just made up a number.

predictedNO

@XComhghall Ha, I assumed you picked something close to a forecast you'd seen. I usually try to pick something that seems ~50% likely at time of market creation.

@chrisjbillington I would pick Nowcasting's forecast, but they are a bit too high the last few times.

Nowcast is giving an estimate of 3.82, unless I’m mixing up annualized and year/year or something.

@DanMan314 Yeah. I think 3.82 is correct. Chose the number cause I thought people might just see the July inflation and expect it to be ~3.18.
