Global Inflation Trends: Relief in US and Europe, Implications for Interest Rates

Reported about 1 month ago

Recent data shows inflation has eased in the US and Europe, suggesting a potential for lower interest rates in both regions. The Federal Reserve's preferred US inflation measure rose by 1.7% in July, the lowest this year, while European consumer prices increased by 2.2% in August, the least since mid-2021. This trend is influencing policymakers' decisions, with expectations of rate cuts to stimulate economic growth, despite challenges in the commercial real estate market and rising insurance costs affecting household budgets.
