PANews, November 10: Data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics showed that the U.S. CPI rose 0.4% month over month on a seasonally adjusted basis in October, versus expectations of a 0.3% increase and a previous increase of 0.6%. Core CPI rose 0.3% month over month in October, versus expectations of a 0.2% increase and a previous increase of 0.3%. Because the U.S. government shutdown last October prevented the Bureau of Labor Statistics from compiling a complete index, no year-over-year data was released this time.
