CPI rises 0.1% in May, less than expected
The consumer price index, a broad-based measure of goods and services across the sprawling U.S. economy, increased 0.1% for the month, putting the annual inflation rate at 2.4%. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones had been looking for respective readings of 0.2% and 2.4%.

Deltas are likely off again, but premium is elevated so took advantage of that, although it still went up more after selling. I’m guessing the pre-market spike up and IV are response to Christine Lagarde’s comments at beginning of her presser (ECB cut rates again).
