- The main focus will be the delayed U.S. CPI report for September
Today’s macroeconomic calendar is unusually important for a Friday. The main focus will be the delayed U.S. CPI report for September. In addition, preliminary PMI reports for European countries and the U.S. will also be released.
The U.S. government has now been shut down for the fourth week, leaving most federal agencies in temporary suspension mode, including the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) — responsible for publishing key macroeconomic data such as labor market and inflation figures. However, due to the high importance of the CPI report, the BLS previously announced that the data would be published with a delay.
The CPI report will be crucial for the Federal Reserve, which is scheduled to make its interest rate decision next week.
