Gasoline costs drive May rise in consumer prices
U S consumer prices edged up 0.2 percent in May after four months of declines led by a 2.5 percent jump in gasoline. Food and new car prices rose while used cars and auto financing fell. Energy other than gasoline continued to drop with heating oil, coal, natural gas, and electricity down. Analysts warned inflation remains muted but could rise with a weaker dollar and higher imported goods.
