The CPI was up 0.4% from March and up 4.9% year-on-year, compared to the forecast of up 0.4% and up 5.0% year-on-year. China is expanding its gold reserves and may be abandoning the US dollar, which could weaken the US dollar's dominance as the global reserve currency. The US government could run out of money by June 1 if the debt ceiling is not raised.
