and I've been linking to her articles here at DU for years. She had another name back then, Alexandra Semenova.

She took some time off to get an MBA at Columbia, and now she's back at Yahoo! Finance.

From two and a half years ago:

Tue Sep 13, 2022: Inflation rose 0.1% in August even with sharp drop in gas prices

Stock market news live updates: Stock futures edge higher with all eyes on CPI print

U.S. stock futures ascended Tuesday as investors prepared for a highly-anticipated inflation reading. ... Futures tied to the S&P 500 and tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite each gained roughly 0.7% in pre-market trading. Dow futures jumped 200 points, or roughly 0.6%.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics is scheduled to release its August Consumer Price Index (CPI) at 8:30 a.m. ET. Data is expected to show inflation rose at an annual pace of 8.1% last month, according to consensus estimates compiled by Bloomberg. If realized, the reading would mark the second-straight moderation in prices from four-decade highs reached earlier this year.

Tuesday's print is likely to be a make-or-break moment for the recent bounce back for equity markets. On Monday, the S&P 500's 1% gain across all 11 sectors helped the index notch its largest four-day advance since June, according to Bloomberg data.

The latest gauge on how quickly inflation is rising across the U.S. economy comes one week before Federal Reserve officials are set to convene for their next meeting Sept. 20-21. Market participants are largely anticipating policymakers will deliver a third consecutive 75 basis point interest rate hikes after weeks of hawkish messaging from members of the U.S. central bank.

I can go back ten years and find articles from her at DU.

Thanks for writing, and good afternoon.
