USD jumps on new inflation news. Consumer Price Index increases.
The U.S. dollar increased today against most major currencies on inflation news out of the U.S. The Consumer Price Index increased 0.8 percent in November compared to a 0.3 percent rise in October and 4.6 percent higher than Novermber 2006 according to data released by the Department of Labor. This increase in CPI was the most since September 2005 which saw a 1.2 percent gain. Core CPI, which doesn't include food and energy prices, was up 0.3 percent for November after five consecutive months of 0.2 percent gains. Today's data may put a hold on the U.S. Fed from cutting interest rates again in January as there is a new risk in having to contain inflation. See the CPI report here. The EUR/USD pair is trading at 1.4446 today around 1pm EST.
