U.S. CPI Data Drops Today: What to Watch

The latest U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) numbers are set to be released today, April 10, 2025, at 8:30 A.M. ET (6:00 P.M. PST). Markets are eyeing a projected 2.6% year-over-year (YoY) increase for March—slightly below February’s 2.8%. On a month-over-month (MoM) basis, CPI is expected to rise 0.1%, down from 0.2%.

Core CPI, which strips out food and energy, is forecast to climb 3.0% YoY and 0.3% MoM.

Why it matters: CPI data plays a major role in shaping inflation expectations and Fed policy, which in turn influence interest rates, borrowing costs, and broader market trends. Traders and investors should keep a close eye on the numbers and be ready to adjust their strategies accordingly. #MarketRebound #CPIdata #InflationWatch
