US CPI rose 0.4% in October from September
The US consumer price index rose 0.4% in October from September, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Core inflation, which excludes food and energy, advanced 0.3% month over month. Gasoline rose 1% in the month and 37.4% from October 2025. The BLS could not provide the year-over-year comparison for the headline CPI because the federal government shutdown between October and November 2025 prevented data compilation. The Federal Reserve meets on December 8 and 9.
