Data released by the U.S. government this week shows that prices for common imported goods such as furniture, sporting goods, and home appliances saw their largest increase in years in June. However, the decline in prices for automobiles and certain service categories largely offset these gains, keeping the overall inflation rate stable. With inventory running low and the approach of tougher tariffs under Trump, businesses are facing further pricing pressure. Forecasters still expect tariffs to drive inflation higher in the coming months.
