On March 12, Jinshi data reported that the US CPI in February was lower than expected, but this improvement may be temporary, as the US imposes high tariffs on imported goods, which is expected to increase the cost of most goods in the coming months. Data released on Wednesday showed that the US CPI rose by 0.2% last month following a 0.5% pump in January. And in the 12 months ending in February, CPI rose by 2.8% after a 3.0% pump in January. 'The longer the inflation exceeds the Fed's target, the greater the likelihood of an upward shift in expectations, even if it is due to temporary factors such as tariffs,' said Stephen Juneau, an analyst at Bank of America Securities in the US. 'If this happens, it will be much more difficult for the Fed to restore price stability.'
