of Regulated energy products (from +13.9% to -0.8%), of Unprocessed food
(from +4.8% to +1.9%) and, to a lesser extent, of Services related to
transport (from +2.4% to +2.0%). At the opposite, an upward contribution

💡 DMK Insight
Headline inflation just dropped, but core CPI is holding steady—here’s why that matters: The unexpected decline in headline inflation, driven by a significant drop in regulated energy prices, could shift market sentiment. Traders often react to headline figures, but the core CPI’s stability at 2.0% suggests underlying inflation pressures remain intact. This divergence could lead to volatility in both equity and forex markets as investors reassess their positions. Watch for potential shifts in the Federal Reserve’s stance on interest rates; if they perceive inflation as under control, it might delay further rate hikes, impacting the USD’s strength. But here’s the flip side: if core inflation starts to rise unexpectedly in the coming months, it could trigger a hawkish response from the Fed, leading to a stronger dollar and downward pressure on risk assets. Keep an eye on the upcoming economic indicators and market reactions, particularly in the energy sector, which could ripple through commodities and equities. For now, monitor the core CPI closely as it could dictate market direction in the near term.
📮 Takeaway
Watch the core CPI closely; any unexpected rise could signal a shift in Fed policy, impacting the USD and risk assets significantly.
