<p>This crash occurred as U.S. stock markets dipped during the U.S. trading session after new data showed that inflation accelerated for a third consecutive month.</p>
<p>This hotter-than-expected CPI print further dashed hopes for Fed rate cuts this year amid fears that progress may be stalling in taming elevated price levels.</p>
<p>JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon warned that “persistent” inflation, geopolitical tensions and the Fed’s Quantitative tightening efforts threaten an otherwise positive economic outlook.</p>
<p>Dimon stated that the market is likely to be weighed down by “persistent inflationary pressures, which may likely continue.”</p>
