Consumer Price Index

소비자물가지수 (CPI)

1. Definition

Measures the average price change of goods and services purchased by urban consumers. Year-over-year change tracks inflation. Compared against Fed's 2% target.

2. Reading Guide

*Core CPI* (excluding food/energy) is the real trend signal — not Headline. 3 consecutive months of acceleration creates hawkish pressure.

3. ETF Trading Implications

Above expectations → rate hike pressure → bonds/REITs weaken. Below expectations → growth/QQQ/tech rally.

6. Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Headline vs Core CPI — which matters more?

The Fed prioritizes Core. Energy and food are too volatile and obscure the underlying trend. But consumer experience aligns more with Headline.

Q. When is it released?

Second Tuesday or Wednesday of each month, 8:30 AM ET.
