A resumption of gains and a breach of 0.8670, the July 2 high and bull trigger, would strengthen bullish conditions and open 0.8738, the Apr 11 high and a key resistance.

  • Taking a step back, dispersion metrics of CPI inflation saw a mild uptick with 33% of ~190 items in the overall basket growing in excess of 3% Y/Y vs 29% in April.
  • It’s the highest since February and before that May 2024, with the share having bottomed out at 28% in December. For context, it averaged 24% in 2019 or 19% in 2015-19.
  • The same analysis for core goods saw the >3% Y/Y share rise from 14% to 19% in May for its highest since Feb and before that Apr 2024. As noted in the details, whilst there were multiple large increases in M/M rates for some specific items, there were also some surprisingly weak readings elsewhere.
  • Further, whilst the latest level is above the 12% averaged in 2015-19, it’s only back to the 18.5% seen just in 2019, having peaked at 75% in 2022.
  • The share of core services items growing >3% Y/Y largely consolidated an impressive recent drop, only rising 1pp to 51% having been at 63% in February. However, it averaged 38% in 2019 or 34% in 2015-19.
