In the big picture, today’s #CPI data displays continued slow progress toward a lower y-o-y rate of #inflation, having come down from a cycle peak of 8.9% in June 2022 to the 6.4% reading today, at the headline level, which is the lowest 12-month inflation gain since Oct 2021.

For three straight months we saw essentially flat readings for #CoreInflation (ex-shelter), for an average level of 0.08%, yet this month we saw it move up to 0.2%.
