To be made available on July 15, 2025, are data on the June 2025 US Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Core CPI. With a monthly increase of 0. 3% versus May's 0. 1%, the consensus prediction calls for an annual CPI inflation rate rise to 2. 6% from 2. 4% in May. The results of recent tariff hikes affecting consumer prices explain most of these rises.
Core inflation rates are likewise expected to increase. Rising from 2. 8% in May, the monthly Core CPI is predicted to rise by 0. 3%, compared to 0. 1% previously. The annual Core CPI is expected to reach 2. 9%. Generally in line with or somewhat above these median forecasts, the Cleveland Fed's "Nowcast" estimates further suggest a possible acceleration in inflation.
This study will be watched closely by investors as well as lawmakers, especially the effect of tariffs on basic commodity prices and ongoing inflation in shelter and services. Particularly if inflation turns out to be more tenacious or speeds beyond existing projections, the June CPI report's results will offer important indicators for the Federal Reserve's next policy actions.
