Inflation: February CPI expected to show slowest annual rise since September 2021

February inflation data is expected to show a continued modest slowdown in consumer prices as investors weigh the latest report against the backdrop of the stunning collapse of Silicon Valley Bank last week.
The closely-watched Consumer Price Index (CPI), set for release at 8:30 a.m. ET Tuesday morning, is expected to show consumer prices cooled slightly last month, with headline inflation forecast to rise 6% over the prior year, a slowdown from January's 6.4% annual gain, according to estimates from Bloomberg.
A 6% increase would mark the slowest annual increase in consumer prices since September 2021.
"Core" inflation, which strips out the more volatile costs of food and energy, is forecast to rise 5.5% over last year and 0.4% over the prior month in February, marking a more modest slowdown than the headline figures are expected to show.

(11,463 posts)2. I think inflation is rewarming and its above 2X the Fed target. Sorry I can't join the bubbly boo
brigade. I just can't. I really wish I could but I can't. 2 months ago I was yammering about inflation is cooling. Then after the January reports, I said umm, its like stalled at 4.5% or more. Well after today's report, I'm saying its more than stalled, its tilting up. I dont' give a fat fuck what the 12 month rolling average is doing by the way -- the below link gets into that
