Online prices for goods in the U.S. have risen across the board, with food and medical supplies seeing the biggest increases!

It is learned that according to foreign media reports, affected by inflation, the prices of online commodities in the United States continued to rise in January 2022 (20 consecutive months), and the prices of groceries and medical supplies hit record highs.

Overall, online prices rose 2.7% in January from a year ago, according to Adobe's online price index. Food prices have risen every month for the past two years, with a 5.8% increase last month.

In addition, due to the resurgence of the epidemic in the United States, nucleic acid testing reagents are "hard to come by", and the prices of online medical products have jumped 8.2%, hitting a record high.

It is worth noting that the prices of clothing and electronic products showed a downward trend, and began to decline after reaching the value-added level at the end of 2021, effectively alleviating the overall increase. However, although clothing prices fell in January, they were still 15.8% higher than last year.
