经济学家普遍预测，九月消费者价格指数同比涨幅将达3.6%，较上月的3.4%进一步攀升。若剔除食品与能源等波动性较大的项目，核心通胀率预计将从八月的2.4%微升至2.5%。
今日报告出炉之际，以下三条主线值得密切跟踪。
对美联储而言意味着什么：货币政策制定者已将其重心从提振劳动力市场转向遏制通胀。上个月，官员们实施了三年来的首次加息。彼时，多数决策者暗示年内还将再加息一次。
消费者支出：通胀之所以持续高于美联储目标，美国消费者的强劲韧性是关键推手。失业率处于低位、股市节节走高，家庭即便面对物价上涨仍不愿缩减开支。如此一来，企业便更容易将成本压力转嫁给终端客户。
数据中心：数据中心建设热潮同样为本轮通胀添了一把火——半导体及其他相关商品的价格被一路推高。
