Key US indicators post growth

US stock indices showed a 0.2% increase at the close of yesterday's trading. During the session, indicators climbed to 1.5% but closed at lower levels. The Industrial Dow Jones rose by 0.15%, the broad S&P 500 increased by 0.03%, and the tech-heavy NASDAQ added 0.12%.

The strengthening of the tech sector, service industry, and telecommunications sector is noted. Despite the US consumer price growth of 3.2% in July, exceeding June's 3%, the figure fell short of experts' forecasts, which expected growth up to 3.3%. On the contrary, the core inflation rate decreased from June's 4.8% to 4.7% in July.

Inflation increase data play a crucial role for investors, as the US Federal Reserve considers this information when making decisions about monetary policy. Currently, over 90% of analysts believe that in the upcoming meeting next month, the US regulator will maintain the rate at the current range of 5.25-5.5%.

According to analysts, the latest inflation statistics indicate an ongoing deflationary process, even though consumer prices have risen for the first time in a year. Monthly inflation growth in July remained the same as the previous month, at 0.2%.
