US inflation trend: Producer prices remain flat in June; tariff effects may hit harder from August

US wholesale inflation remained flat in June, despite concerns over President Trump's tariffs. The producer price index showed a 2.3% year-on-year increase, the smallest since September. While some sectors saw tariff impacts, like furniture, others, such as steel, defied expectations. Retailers are feeling the squeeze, and the Federal Reserve is monitoring the impact on inflation.
