    U.S. wholesale prices dropped unexpectedly in April for the first time
    in more than a year despite President Donald Trump�s sweeping taxes on
    imports.

    The producer price index � which tracks inflation before it hits
    consumers � fell 0.5% last month from March and rose 2.4% from April
    2024, the U.S. Labor Department reported Thursday.

    And you think prices in April would have been impacted by tariffs that
    weren't actually imposed, do you?

    Interesting.
