Inflation in America: Inflation in the US fell more than expected and was three percent last month. This is the third consecutive month when inflation has come down. This information has been received from government data. This shows that the four-decades-long rapid increase in inflation is now coming under control and the US central bank, the Federal Reserve, may move towards cutting policy rates in the coming days. According to official data, the inflation rate has decreased by 0.1 percent in June compared to May. Year-on-year inflation was three percent last month, which was 3.3 percent in May.
