The U.S. October inflation data will be released at 21:30 Beijing Time, but year-over-year figures will be unavailable due to the October 2025 government shutdown. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics was unable to collect price data, so the market will focus on month-over-month readings. Economists forecast a 0.3% increase in CPI and a 0.2% increase in core CPI. On-chain data is likely to play an increased role in assessing market sentiment as inflation data remains incomplete.

BitPush News: The U.S. October CPI inflation report will be released at 21:30 Beijing Time, but this report will not include the annual CPI and core CPI data.

The reason is the U.S. government shutdown in October 2025, during which staff were unable to collect price data for that month, resulting in a lack of reference for this year; as a result, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics could not calculate the annual (year-over-year) data, and the market can only rely on month-over-month data to assess inflation.

Economists expect the U.S. CPI for October 2026 to rise 0.3% month-over-month, with core CPI rising 0.2% month-over-month, both showing a slowdown in growth.
