Consumer prices unchanged in May; Up 3.3% from year ago
In May, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) remained unchanged, signaling a slight easing of inflationary pressures on the U.S. economy, according to the Labor Department’s report released Wednesday.
Compared to a year ago, the CPI increased by 3.3%, slightly below economists’ expectations of a 0.1% monthly increase and a 3.4% annual rise.
In April, the CPI had risen by 0.3% month-over-month, with an annual increase also at 3.3%.
Excluding volatile food and energy prices, the core CPI rose by 0.2% from the previous month and by 3.4% from a year ago, slightly below forecasts of 0.3% and 3.5%, respectively.
Following the release of the report, stock market futures responded positively with gains, while Treasury yields declined, CNBC has reported.
