The U.S. CPI (Consumer Price Index) measures how much prices of goods and services change over time — it shows inflation levels. It’s one of the most important reports for traders and investors because it affects the U.S. dollar, stocks, and crypto markets. The CPI data is released once a month, usually around the second week. The official release time is 8:30 AM Eastern Time (ET), which is 5:30 PM in Pakistan. When the CPI is higher than expected, markets often fall; when it’s lower, markets usually rise because it means inflation is cooling.
