Here’s the latest on CPI news based on what’s publicly reported most recently.
- U.S. CPI readings have shown inflation cooling at various points in 2025, with headline CPI often around low-to-mid 3% ranges month-to-month, while core inflation (excluding food and energy) has tended to remain stickier in the 3% area. This pattern has influenced market expectations and Federal Reserve policy signals at different times during 2025.[1][2][5]
- In late 2025 and into 2026, attention has also centered on how tariff changes, supply-chain disruptions, and labor market conditions interact with CPI readings, with pundits noting inflation risks could re-emerge if energy or goods prices spike or if wage growth accelerates.[2][1]
- For ongoing, up-to-the-minute CPI releases and expert commentary, the Bureau of Labor Statistics issues the official CPI data each month, with the next release typically followed by market briefings and central-bank commentary.[5]
