The newly released US Q2 2026 seasonally adjusted CPI Energy Index rose to 325.978, up 3.8% from the previous period's 314.019, driving overall inflation beyond market expectations. Crude oil supply disruptions caused by the Middle East conflict are the main reason for this wave of energy price hikes, which not only led to soaring gasoline and airfare prices but also significantly diminished expectations of a near-term interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve.
