The latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) shows that inflation in the U.S. rose by 0.3% in September, bringing the annual rate down to 3.0% — slightly below what economists had anticipated.
Analysts surveyed by Dow Jones had expected monthly inflation of 0.4% and an annual rate of 3.1%, but the data came in softer, offering some relief to policymakers and investors alike.
Even after excluding food and energy — the more volatile components — core CPI rose just 0.2% for the month and 3.0% year-over-year, also under projections of 0.3% and 3.1%.
This report, notably the only major economic data released during the ongoing government shutdown, indicates that price pressures are continuing to gradually ease, supporting the view that inflation is on a controlled path toward the Federal Reserve’s 2% target.
Markets reacted positively to the release, as traders see the cooler numbers as a potential sign that the Fed could pause future rate hikes — or even start discussing policy easing if the trend continues.
While inflation remains above pre-pandemic levels, this softer print reinforces growing optimism that the U.S. economy is managing a “soft landing” — slowing inflation without triggering a deep recession.
