The Iran war is driving a significant inflation shock across the US economy as energy prices remain elevated with oil above $100 per barrel and gas at a 47 percent premium over pre-war levels. Economists warn the May inflation report will reveal how deeply the energy price spike has penetrated food, goods, and services pricing. The newly confirmed Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh faces the difficult decision of whether to cut interest rates to ease economic pain or hold them high to combat energy-driven inflation, while average American households are already spending approximately $300 more per month on fuel.
