Context

The final print of US unit labor costs showed a significant increase of 4.4% quarter-on-quarter, well above the expected 2.8% and sharply reversing the previous decline of -1.8%. This stronger-than-expected data suggests upward pressure on wages, which could influence inflation expectations and potentially impact the Federal Reserve's policy stance on interest rates going forward.
