最新报道:U.S. inflation remained at the Fed's 2% target in July, matching expectations as core prices rose 0.2% monthly and 2.6% annually. The unchanged Personal Consumption Expenditures index strengthens the case for potential Fed rate cuts, with markets now pricing in a 60% chance of a September reduction. While goods prices fell 0.1%, services inflation rose 0.3%, reflecting ongoing economic rebalancing. The data comes ahead of Fed Chair Powell's Jackson Hole speech, where he may provide clearer guidance on monetary policy direction amid cooling labor markets and moderating wage growth.
