[Service Inflation Indicator Monitored by the Federal Reserve Remains Flat in June] Jin10 News, July 14 – According to foreign media reports, the U.S. CPI data released on Tuesday came in below expectations. Not only did the core data fall short of expectations, but related indicators monitoring persistent inflationary signs also failed to meet projections. The June 'services inflation excluding energy' indicator remained flat, compared to a 0.3% increase in May. As Federal Reserve policymakers are concerned that inflation may persist or that 'underlying structural' inflation continues, they have identified service sector inflation as a key area of focus, as price pressures in this sector typically rise more slowly than energy prices.
