在本周三澳大利亚统计局公布了一系列数据，数据显示五月份的CPI通胀率超出了预期达到4%。
由于住房和食品成本高企，五月份澳大利亚消费者价格指数(CPI)通胀率增长超出预期，这使得澳大利亚储备银行可能会保持强硬立场的担忧加剧。
根据澳大利亚统计局周三公布的数据，五月份CPI上涨了4%。这一数值高于预期的3.8%，且高于上个月的3.6%。
剔除燃料、新鲜食品价格和假期支出等波动较大的项目后，核心CPI通胀率从四月份的4.1%小幅下降至五月份的4%。然而，CPI读数依然远高于澳大利亚储备银行设定的2%至3%的年度目标，这也引发了对其是否会在今年内回到目标范围内的怀疑。
住房成本是CPI上涨的主要因素，有限的供应和高昂的抵押贷款利率导致租金上涨。高住房成本与不断上涨的食品价格共同抵消了燃料价格的月度下降。
周三的读数显示，通胀的顽固性日益增加，这可能导致澳大利亚储备银行长期维持高利率。尽管央行在潜在加息方面的措辞有所缓和，但通胀的进一步上升可能促使央行采取更强硬的态度。
澳大利亚储备银行助理行长Christopher Kent表示，央行仍需警惕通胀可能进一步上升。他在央行上周维持利率不变后发表了这一言论，但面对顽固的通胀，央行展现出了更为强硬的立场。
