Inflation in the US has exceeded expectations in August, with a 0.4% increase compared to the previous month, contributing to an annual rate of 2.9%. In the context of a deteriorating labor market and tariff uncertainties, the Federal Reserve may cut interest rates at next week's meeting, the first reduction in the past year. Recent revisions of employment data suggest a possible recession, and economist Anna Wong estimates that the labor market could face difficulties in the first half of 2025.
