US inflation accelerated last month due to a spike in gas prices. This increase is attributed to renewed fighting in the Middle East. The consumer price index rose 3.4% compared to the same time last year. On a monthly basis, inflation quickened with costs jumping 0.4% from July to August.
This increase in inflation may impact upcoming decisions by the Federal Reserve. The Fed is set to meet next week and may consider boosting the benchmark interest rate.
Further details on the inflation rate and its potential effects are available from the source.
