SOURCE EVIDENCE

"July CPI and PPI both confirmed that disinflation is holding, with headline and core readings coming in broadly in line rather than reaccelerating... The probability of a September hold now stands at 67 per cent, up sharply from 42 per cent a month ago, while December hold odds have moved to 35 per cent from 20 per cent."
