This from the Analysts desk at Morningstar: The Consumer Price Index report for October 2023 is forecast to show a continued overall decline in inflation, led largely by moderating energy prices.
However, economists expect core CPI (which excludes volatile food and energy prices) to show stickiness rather than improvement, holding at levels well above the Federal Reserve’s target.
According to FactSet, the overall CPI is forecast to come in at a 3.3% annual rate in October, down from 3.7% in September. Meanwhile, core CPI is expected to remain at September’s levels, with a 4.1% increase from a year ago.
