12 月份美联储首选通胀指标达到三年来的最低水平。 December saw the lowest level of the Fed's preferred inflation measure in three years.

由于美联储首选的基本通胀指标达到 2021 年以来的最低水平，通胀在 12 月进一步放缓。 Inflation slowed further in December as the Federal Reserve's preferred measure of underlying inflation reached its lowest level since 2021. 尽管假日支出强劲，但通胀率降温再次引发了关于美联储是否会降低借贷成本的争论。 The cooling inflation rate, despite strong holiday spending, has revived the debate on whether the Fed will reduce borrowing costs. 这一发展被认为有利于乔·拜登总统的连任竞选，因为他的经济管理能力可能是竞选的决定性因素。 This development is seen as beneficial for President Joe Biden's re-election campaign, as his economic stewardship could be a deciding factor in the race.
