US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen acknowledges the rise in costs of goods like rent, attributing them to inflation. Yellen expects rents, a major contributor to inflation, to decrease this year. She expresses regret for previously labeling inflation as 'transitory' and emphasizes the administration's focus on addressing high costs affecting Americans. Yellen dismisses concerns of stagflation, forecasting a cooling of inflation as housing costs decline.
