The annual U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose to 2.7% in November, marking its second consecutive monthly increase and reaching a four-month high, according to Jinshi Data. The rebound aligns with market expectations and reflects ongoing inflationary pressures in the economy.
The increase in the unadjusted CPI suggests that certain sectors are still grappling with higher costs despite previous efforts to curb inflation. Analysts are closely monitoring these trends as they may influence the Federal Reserve's upcoming monetary policy decisions.
