Economy: Prices rising up this April.

Inflation is picking up again. Being shoved upwards by rising gas prices, the amount of money needed to buy items is going to increase this April, by 0.4%, the fastest rate in the past three years. Core prices, (which don't include food) were up by 2.1% a year ago, making  a five-month streak of growth  over 2%. The numbers could make a central bank raise rates this year sooner rather then later.
