What it means

This CPI print is a continuation of the ongoing US inflation decline that delfee has already covered — prior signals already called for Treasury and growth-equity gains. The 3.5% reading and energy-driven softness are consistent with what markets have had time to price in from the earlier signal, adding no genuinely new information beyond what was already reflected.
