Consumer Price Index (CPI)
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of the average change in prices paid by urban consumers for a fixed basket of goods and services. It is published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and used as a gauge of inflation.
Example: In the latest report, the CPI increased by 0.4% month over month, a sign that consumer prices rose broadly across the basket of goods and services.
