Similarly, apparel increased 0.4% monthly after two months of negative readings, though the level is still modest. Overall, core goods inflation remains not too concerning, but household goods were up about 1% in June, about five times the previous rate of increase.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Services inflation is cooling, keeping overall inflation from accelerating. Shelter inflation, which makes up about 40% of core CPI, has cooled to just 0.2% monthly, the lowest level since February 2021. The decline from May to June was driven by a large drop in hotel prices (-2.9% monthly) rather than rent. Importantly for the Fed, however, shelter inflation has been expected to decline, as that metric lags market rent measures by 1-2 years. Since market rents have remained flat, we can expect CPI shelter to continue putting downward pressure on overall inflation for some time.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Inflation remains mild enough that the Fed could cut rates in their September 17th meeting if the next couple months of data are similar.<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We are unlikely to get much clarity from Chair Powell at the July 30 Fed meeting.
