On July 13, according to Jinshi Data, analysts said that after months of low inflation, U.S. consumers may have experienced a slightly faster rise in prices in June, as companies began to pass on higher import costs associated with tariffs to consumers. A survey of economists by institutions showed that prices for goods and services, excluding volatile food and energy costs, are expected to rise by 0.3%, the largest increase in five months, in June. The core CPI in May rose only slightly by 0.1%. Although next Tuesday's report may only show a slight pass-through of the cost of U.S. import tariffs to consumers, many economists expect inflation to gradually pick up as time goes on. At the same time, many businesses are hesitant to raise prices, and U.S. consumers are more focused on spending restraint after the cooling of the job market, forming a delicate balance.
