The Bureau of Labor Statistics on Tuesday said that the consumer price index (CPI) – a broad measure of how much everyday goods like gasoline, groceries and rent cost – rose 0.3% in June compared with last month, while it was up 2.7% on an annual basis. Those figures were slightly higher than the estimate of economists polled by LSEG. Both marked accelerations from last month, when the monthly increase was 0.1% and the annual figure was 2.4%.
