The inflation rate in the United States was 9.1 percent for the month of June, compared to the same month last year. This is the highest price increase since 1981.

Chief Economist Marius Gunsholt Hof at Handelsbanken stated that inflation was higher than expected, and believes the central bank is in its wake.
