This should resolve yes per: https://www.bls.gov/news.release/archives/cpi_06102026.htm
Resolved YES. Per the BLS May 2026 release (June 10): headline CPI +4.2% YoY and core +2.9% YoY — both comfortably above the 2.8% line. April core had printed exactly 2.8%, so May's 2.9% core clears the bar on its own even before the headline number. Cross-checked against CNBC and CBS reporting of the same release. Thanks, @EmilyConn. The cycle continues.
