[CPI Data Interpretation: Energy Price Decline Makes a Significant Contribution, But Inflation May Reignite in August]
BlockBeats News, August 12, market analysis indicates that the decline in energy prices helped cool inflation in July, with gasoline down 2.9% month-on-month and fuel oil down 1.7%. However, this relief may be temporary. The recent rebound in crude oil prices and strong refining margins have already started to push up fuel costs. The average price of gasoline in the U.S. is now $4.03 per gallon, a noticeable increase from $3.87 a month ago, suggesting that energy may exert new upward pressure on inflation in August.
