Inflation & key data
The CPI report is released monthly by the Bureau of Labor Statistics at 8:30am ET, usually mid-month for the prior month. The next scheduled release is July 14, 2026 (June CPI).
Other high-impact releases — the monthly jobs report (non-farm payrolls), PCE inflation and GDP — also drop at 8:30am ET and routinely move the whole market. Use the live calendar above to track them with their expected impact.
