U.S. inflation unexpectedly rose in January, supporting the Fed's slow rate cut

PANews reported on February 12 that according to Jinshi, the annual inflation rate in the United States unexpectedly rose to 3% in January. Economists expected the inflation rate to stabilize at the level of 2.9% in December last year, which supported the Fed's reason for slowly advancing interest rate cuts and hit the stock market and Treasury bonds. The month-on-month increase in January also exceeded expectations, at 0.5%, higher than the expected 0.3%. After the data was released, Treasury bonds and stock futures were sold off sharply. The yield on the two-year U.S. Treasury bond, which is closely related to interest rate expectations, jumped to 4.37%. S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq futures both fell by more than 1%.
