JUST IN 🚨
U.S. inflation data is out.
The latest CPI print landed at 2.7%, exactly in line with forecasts.
While there was no upside surprise, this confirms one key thing: inflation isn’t cooling fast enough.
At these levels, price pressures remain stubborn, giving the Federal Reserve little room to accelerate rate cuts. With inflation refusing to fall decisively toward the Fed’s 2% target, monetary policy is likely to stay tight for longer.
•What this means for markets:
•Fewer or delayed rate cuts
•Higher-for-longer interest rates
•Liquidity stays constrained
•Risk assets may face short-term pressure •unless growth data weakens
°Bottom line:
This CPI reading doesn’t ease the Fed’s job. Inflation stability at 2.7% keeps policymakers cautious and reinforces a restrictive policy environment going forward.
