US consumer prices continued to soar in May, pushed higher by surging energy costs more than three months into a war with Iran, according to government data released Wednesday.

Prices rose 4.2% from May 2025 in the hottest annual reading since April 2023, and 0.5% on a monthly basis, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, matching economists’ expectations. The index for energy prices alone accounted for more than 60% of the increase from April, with prices rising 3.9%.
