nflation climbs higher than expected in June as price index rises 5.4%
KEY POINTS Consumer prices increased 5.4% in June from a year earlier, the biggest monthly gain since August 2008. Excluding food and energy, inflation increased 4.5%, the largest move since September 1991. Used car and truck prices comprised about one-third of the total CPI increase. WATCH NOW VIDEO02:49 June’s Consumer Price Index comes in at 0.9% vs. 0.5% estimate Inflation surged in June at its fastest pace in nearly 13 years amid a burst in used vehicle costs and price increases in food and energy, the Labor Department reported Tuesday.
The consumer price index increased 5.4% from a year earlier, the largest jump since August 2008, just before the worst of the financial crisis. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones had been expecting a 5% gain.
Stripping out volatile food and energy prices, the core CPI rose 4.5%, the sharpest move for that measure since September 1991 and well above the estimate of 3.8%.
On a monthly basis, headline and core prices rose 0.9% against 0.5% estimates.
Stock market futures fell following the report, while government bond yields, which have been down precipitously, were mixed.
“What this really shows is inflation pressures remain more acute than appreciated and are going to be with us for a longer period,” said Sarah House, senior economist for Wells Fargo’s corporate and investment bank. “We are seeing areas where there’s going to be ongoing inflation pressure even after we get past some of those acute price hikes in a handful of sectors.”
A separate report from the Labor Department’s Bureau of Labor Statistics noted that the big monthly hike in consumer prices translated into negative real wages for workers. Real average hourly earnings fell 0.5% for the month, as a 0.3% increase in average hourly earnings was more than negated by the CPI increase.
Inflation has been escalating due to several factors, including supply-chain bottlenecks, extraordinarily high demand as the Covid-19 pandemic eases and year-over-year comparisons to a time when the economy was struggling to reopen in the early months of the crisis.
Policymakers at the Federal Reserve and the White House expect the current pressures to begin to ease, though central bank officials have acknowledged that inflation is stronger and perhaps more durable than they had anticipated.
Fed Chairman Jerome Powell likely will be asked for his views on inflation when he speaks Wednesday and Thursday to separate House and Senate panels. Powell has been steadfast that inflationary pressures are primarily transitory, though a Fed report Friday indicated that upside risks are increasing.
“This does increase some of the jitters among some [Fed] members,” Wells Fargo’s House said. “We already saw they were getting more worried about inflation at the June meeting. If you parse through this, there are a number of areas where inflation is picking up and likely has staying power. That’s going to make some folks nervous.”
Much of the price pressures have come from sectors particularly influenced by the shutdown — used car prices, air fares and transportation costs, to name three.
That was the case again last month, as used car and truck prices leaped 10.5%, accounting for more than one-third of all the price index’s gains. For the 12-month period, used car and truck prices have burst 45.2% higher.
Food and energy prices also were up substantially, 0.8% and 1.5% respectively. The gasoline index rose 2.5% in June and is up 45.1% over the past 12 months. Food has increased 2.4% in the past year.
However, housing and shelter prices continue to climb, adding fuel to the belief that inflation could stick around for a while.
Shelter makes up nearly one-third of the CPI and increased 0.5% for the month and 2.6% from June 2020.
Consumers see prices overall up 4.8% in the next 12 months, according to a New York Fed survey released Monday, though a separate survey from Bank of America out Tuesday indicated that professional investors are more inclined to believe that inflation will be temporary.

因为上次5%也是很高，但是因为联储坚持暂时通胀，所以股市纹丝未动。别以为是什么牛逼消息。可用性不强。只有联储说要收缩才有用
操，这点通胀算个屁呀

个人判断通胀在夏季达到顶峰，FED也说了as expected and still transitory。
当然同样的事牛眼看牛熊眼看熊，有人认为通胀可以继续飙，10%不是梦。
炒股看的不是当下(priced in)而是预期，哪个可能大各位看官自己判断呗。
今天的30Y债券auction就不行，这种通胀，谁要收益2%的30年债券。
问题是看了CPI又咋样？CPI能帮你做market timing？ CPI能帮你选股？要是看了CPI就能保证赚钱，那不管是花街还是韭菜都变成股神了。
