According to the latest data, the US unadjusted Core CPI for August 2026 (Q3 2026) climbed to 339.287, continuing its upward trend from 338.041 in the previous month, translating to an annual growth rate of approximately 2.56%. Although the market consensus for the seasonally adjusted figure was 2.4%, underlying housing and transportation service costs remain stubborn. This indicates a bumpy road ahead for disinflation, and market expectations for short-term Federal Reserve rate cuts have cooled significantly.
