Consumer Price Index (YoY) released 0.2% as expected. also Consumer Price Index Ex Food & Energy (YoY) released as expected 1.8%
They can forget to lift interest rates, it will be economic suicide.
Already Begin the FOMC Game ,now countdown start ,all Mkt manipulation ,just opposite mkt react ,it will continue till FOMC.
Well, most CPI data came in below expectations=bearish for USD, but Real Earnings rose by +0.4 compared to -0.4 last time, which should be quite bullish for USD, and I think the relatively strong Real Earnings data outweighs the somewhat weak (or in line w expectations) CPI data, thus the strong USD right now. Just my 5 cents.
Data in red yet USD bulling up? Any clue of what's going on?
I don't understand why we had negative data (should be bearish) , but USD is bullish.
Rate hike in September expected. Just cause it's red and not green doesn't mean anything need to read the reports its actual vs prior and expected are closely the same

You are reading the headline result, but the devils are in the details. Food and energy increased but dragged down by cars, furnishing, etc. Food and energy are important consideration because you can do without cars and furnishing, you cannot do without food and energy. Just my opinion.
Welcome to the world of forex. Imagine the unimaginable....
Just wait the usd is about to surge no buyers on the other end

Smart money is accumulating orders.
It will go up in a while.
Banks know the minds of retail traders and know there are short stops between 1.1020 and 1.1000 so they drop to pick up the bargain prices before going higher.
Other countries also most likely have a celieing since they are devaluing their currency and will not allow their pair to going beyond that celieing has nothing to do with manipulation

But my friend's grandma's nanny just made 7000 usd trading. Shes quitting her job and going full time trading. Clearly you are just fear mongering.
It's clear that US consumers are not buying useless plastic junk with their savings from lower gas prices as many thought they would. That's probably because all the savings from lower gas prices was spent on higher health insurance premiums and deductibles. Businesses are simply not seeing the increase in demand for products that usually produces higher top line numbers and increased wages. The CPI is not approaching the Fed target of 2% inflation, and in fact deflation is now a real danger. If the Fed is true to it's word, it will delay raising rates until December at the earliest. If Ben Bernanke was still running the Fed, he'd be loading up the helicopters with sacks of $100 bills right about now.

I don't think he/she is a fear-monger. I see someone who has not figured-out how to trade the News. He might come to like it when he/she does

That does not takeaway the truth or facts in what he/she is saying! And your "grandma" sarcasm is uncalled for!!

Each to their own .... I would say

This means that the Feds, will be scared to lift the rates............
Overall inflation rate is 1.8% same as previous month... fed target is 2%... tank.. tank.. tank..

Even with oil price drop.... still can maintain as previous month...

I don't understand why we had negative data (should be bearish) , but USD is bullish.
Housing costs within CPI were up .4% and housing expenses up 3.1%(not positive on this). This data has been highest gain in eight years and is a pinnacle measure for the advancement in inflation.
