According to US consumer news and business channel html on the 213th, the inflation data released by the United States in August exceeded expectations, causing the three major U.S. stock indexes collectively fell sharply that day.
Data released by the U.S. Department of Labor on the same day showed that the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose 8.3% year-on-year in August this year. U.S. stocks rose for four consecutive trading days earlier, partly because many investors believe inflation has peaked. However, August CPI data showed that U.S. inflation is still at an all-time high. Analysts believe that the high year-on-year growth rate of CPI consolidates the possibility that the Federal Reserve Feder will once again raise interest rates.
