Investing.com – The US inflation data that markets have been awaiting for days is now out. The importance of the data just released is that it reveals regarding pricing…
Inflation data was negative this time, as the main monthly and annual consumer price indices came below expectations, and lower than the rates recorded in the previous reading. This also happened in the monthly and annual core CPI data.
