On September 12th, CICC Research pointed out that the US August CPI rose 0.4% month-on-month (0.1% in the previous month) and 3.4% year-on-year (3.4% in the previous month); core CPI rose 0.3% month-on-month (0.2% in the previous month) and 2.4% year-on-year (2.5% in the previous month), slightly higher than market expectations. The month-on-month rebound in inflation was mainly due to rising energy prices, telecommunications price increases, and continued inflationary pressure from AI. CICC believes that this CPI report has reached the threshold for the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates, and therefore expects the Fed to raise interest rates by 25 basis points at its meeting on September 16th. In addition, the Fed may lower the unemployment rate and raise its inflation forecast, and the dot plot may raise the interest rate path for 2027 and 2028, signaling a longer period of tightening. A more hawkish risk scenario is that there will be another rate hike this year or next year. If this occurs, the market may repric a longer-term rate hike cycle.September 12th - On September 12th, the Beijing-Xiongan Express Line, constructed and managed by Xiongan Group Rail Transit Company, officially commenced full-line trial operation.

Following the ECBs second increase in borrowing costs on Thursday, Austrian central bank president Kocher stated that "inflation risks are higher than a few months ago" due to continued tensions in the Middle East and persistently high energy prices. Since the collapse of the US-Iran ceasefire agreement in early July, oil prices have risen by more than 45%, breaking through $100 per barrel. Since June, European natural gas prices have almost doubled, approaching €80 per megawatt-hour. Kocher stated, "If oil and gas prices develop in an unfavorable scenario, then... monetary policy must take these changes into account." He added that inflation risks will further intensify.According to the Financial Times, the US has restricted the timeframe for air defense operations to allow oil tankers to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
