Core Consumer Price Index (Change)

US Core Consumer Price Index (Change)

The Core CPI is calculated in the same manner as the CPI but items with high volatility - such as energy and food - are excluded. Because these products are vulnerable to dramatic price swings, they can lead to a distortion in the CPI calculation.
