What this page tracks
Monthly CPI and PCE inflation reports, category price trends (food, energy, housing, services), wage growth, and how the Fed and policymakers respond. Each story links to its original source.
Reading inflation data
Headline inflation includes food and energy; core inflation strips them out to show the underlying trend. Alto aggregates coverage of both from multiple outlets and pairs many stories with analysis for context.
Inflation — Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the CPI?
- The Consumer Price Index (CPI) measures the average change over time in the prices paid by urban consumers for a basket of goods and services. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics releases it monthly, and it is a primary gauge of inflation.
- What is the difference between headline and core inflation?
- Headline inflation includes all items, including volatile food and energy prices. Core inflation excludes food and energy to reveal the underlying price trend the Fed watches most closely.
- Where can I follow inflation news?
- This page aggregates inflation and cost-of-living headlines from many publishers in one continuously updated feed, each linking to the original report.
