Analysts at Commerzbank offer a sneak peek at what to expect from today’s US CPI report due later at 1230 GMT. Key Quotes: “We expect a rise of 0.2% on the previous month (consensus: 0.2%) for both headline inflation and the core rate ex. energy and food. Shifts in the prices of individual commodity groups have probably balanced each other out: wholesale prices, for example, signal a smaller decline in used car prices, while prices for hotel accommodation have surged recently, which points to a counter-movement. As in May, the year-on-year CPI rate would then be 2.8% (headline rate) and 2.3% (core rate). This would suggest that inflation has not changed on the basis of the PCE deflator either – these figures are published at the end of the month. Higher US tariffs could also push prices up a little in the coming months, as shown by the effect of one of President Trump’s first measures, the 20% tariff imposed in January on imported washing machines. Washing machines were in fact almost 18% more expensive on average in May than in March, making the year-on-year comparison positive again for the first time since 2012. With all major household appliances accounting for only 0.08% of the consumer price index, the inflation rate has barely moved but this could soon change if the tariffs on cars announced by Trump do become reality.” FX Street FX Street FXStreet is the leading independent portal dedicated to the Foreign Exchange (Forex) market.
