US CPI Mar - Housing cost increases hit record low

2025-04-10

US CPI Mar


10/4/2025 (Thu) 


Previous: 2.8% Forecast: 2.6%


The BLS reported that the CPI increased 2.8% in February from year-ago levels, compared with 3.0% in January. Core reading rose 3.1% in the month, the lowest level since April 2021.


Grocery prices are continuing to rise, with the cost of eggs jumping 58.8%. The ongoing rise of food costs is creating a financial pinch for many households, economists note.


Shelter costs moved up 4.2%, the smallest since December 2021, but still the main driver behind the gain in the CPI. Notably the report did not fully capture a cascade of tariffs by Trump.
