4.2% doesn't seem high, but if the annual rate keeps rising, people's actual inflation experience isn't reflected by this number.

CPI 4.2% meets expectations, but the previous value of 3.8% jumped up, still putting some pressure on it. The Fed's interest rate cut expectations are cooling down again.

Expected = no surprises, the market will probably continue to fluctuate, waiting for the next non-farm payroll report.
