The U.S. May CPI report to be released next Wednesday will test the market’s optimism about interest rate cuts, as it may show a stagnation in the recent trend of declining inflation. According to the Cleveland Fed’s Nowcast model, the overall CPI for May is expected to increase by 2.4% year-on-year, up from 2.3% last month; the core CPI is expected to rise by 2.8% year-on-year, unchanged from last month. Analysts expect the annualized inflation rate for core goods to peak in the early fall (4%-5%), slightly lower and delayed compared to the forecast before the “equivalent tariffs” suspension on May 8.
