The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics will release February CPI data at 20:30 tonight.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics will release the February Consumer Price Index (CPI) report at 20:30 tonight (Beijing time). The market expects inflation to ease but remain above the Federal Reserve's target. According to FactSet consensus estimates, the February CPI is expected to rise 0.3% month-on-month and increase 2.9% year-on-year, down from January's 3.0%. If accurate, this would mark the first time since early 2023 that the annual rate falls below the 3% threshold. Core CPI is projected to rise 0.3% month-on-month and 3.2% year-on-year. Trump administration policies on tariffs and immigration restrictions have sparked concerns.
TechFlow news, on March 12, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics will release the February Consumer Price Index (CPI) report at 20:30 tonight (Beijing time). The market expects inflation to ease slightly but remain above the Federal Reserve's target. According to FactSet consensus estimates, the February CPI is expected to rise 0.3% month-on-month and increase 2.9% year-on-year, down from January's 3.0%. If accurate, this would mark the first time since early 2023 that the annual rate has fallen below the 3% threshold. Core CPI is projected to rise 0.3% month-on-month and 3.2% year-on-year.
Market concerns about the inflation outlook have been renewed by the Trump administration's tariffs and immigration restrictions. Economists at Wells Fargo stated, "The February CPI report may offer an initial glimpse of tariff impacts, but this is just the beginning." Combined trade tensions and supply chain complexities could undermine the Fed's confidence in the disinflation trend and delay the market-expected timeline for interest rate cuts.
