币界网报道：[Analyst: Middle East conflict may push US summer CPI to 4%] Bloomberg Economics analysts including Ziad Daoud said in a report that as US President Trump's suspension of so-called reciprocal tariffs is about to expire, rising geopolitical risks are intertwined with the possible escalation of tariffs in the coming weeks. The biggest impact of the protracted Middle East conflict on the economy may be soaring oil prices. In the extreme case of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, crude oil could soar to more than $130 a barrel. This could bring the US summer CPI close to 4%, prompting the Federal Reserve and other central banks to postpone future interest rate cuts. The report said that any sharp rise in oil or gas prices, or trade turmoil caused by further escalation of the conflict, would be another constraint on the world economy.
