September Inflation Report Likely to Show Core Prices Surged 

The Labor Department is releasing the highly anticipated consumer price index (CPI) report providing a new look at the impacts of inflation in September. 

Economists anticipate the gauge, which measures a basket of goods, including gasoline, among other common items, to show that prices rose 0.2 percent in September from the previous month, up from 0.1 percent in August. On an annual basis, inflation is projected to have climbed by 8.1 percent.
