Société Générale: The US August CPI is expected to accelerate to 0.4%

ChainCatcher news, according to Jinshi reports, economists at Societe Generale expect that the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) in August will rise from 0.2% in July to 0.4%, causing the year-on-year growth rate of CPI to increase from 2.7% to 2.9%. The core CPI annual rate is expected to remain at 3.1%. As companies have essentially exhausted their pre-tariff inventories, this may increase the risk of price pass-through to consumers.
