US May inflation rises as expected
U.S. inflation rose to 4.2% in May on a yearly basis, marking the biggest increase since the start of 2023, due to rising energy prices caused by the Iranian conflict. Meanwhile, the core Consumer Price Index, which excludes food and energy, increased by 0.2% compared to April and 2.9% compared to the previous year, amid declines in prices for transportation services, health insurance, and new vehicles. Additionally, oil prices increased by 1% following U.S. strikes on Iran, with costs expected to continue rising in the markets despite the possibility of a resolution to the conflict.
