June CPI declined 0.4% (reversing prior energy-driven increases), easing inflation pressure. Core CPI was flat, supported by declines in used cars, apparel, and medical care, suggesting limited pass-through from war-related costs. The softer inflation backdrop is likely to reinforce expectations for a less hawkish Fed path, supporting risk assets and weighing on rate/discount-rate pressure.
