The following is analysis, separate from reported facts. Verify important claims independently.

CPI used to observe changes in consumer prices. Here, “annual rate 3.7%” means the increase compared with the same month of the previous year 3.7%; “monthly rate 0.6%” means the increase compared with the previous month 0.6%. The year-on-year result was higher than the market expectation by 0.1 percentage points, while the month-on-month result was in line with expectations.

Why it matters to readers

These data show that the U.S.September unadjusted consumer prices rose both year on year and month on month, with the year-on-year increase exceeding market expectations. The original text did not explain what impact the data had on policy or the market.

Beginners can distinguish between annual and monthly rates and focus on the difference between actual data and market expectations; however, a single data point cannot by itself indicate the direction of interest rates or asset prices.
