The latest data shows that the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) for Q2 posted a month-over-month increase of 0.6%, cooling significantly from the previous 0.9% and matching market consensus.

Analysts warn that the risk of energy inflation spilling over into other consumer sectors will be a key test for the Federal Reserve's (Fed) future monetary policy.
