The latest US Q2 2026 core CPI index reached 336.121, an increase of about 0.21% compared to the previous period's 335.423, while the YoY growth rate reached 2.84%, higher than the market expectation of 2.7%. Although the MoM increase based on raw data falls short of the 0.4% reported by external news, the climbing YoY growth rate certainly establishes the stubbornness of inflation. Driven by persistently high shelter and transportation services costs, the Federal Reserve's future monetary policy pivot will face greater challenges.
