About this calendar

US CPI Release Calendar tracks the scheduled publication of the United States Consumer Price Index from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the federal release that serves as the headline inflation print for markets and policymakers. The feed centres on a single indicator rather than a broad macro diary, with each CPI publication following the standard 08:30 Eastern Time release convention used by the agency. Every entry corresponds to an official CPI release rather than a forecast, revision note, or policy event. That narrow focus is what makes the calendar distinct: it is built for the recurring inflation publication that often shapes expectations for Federal Reserve policy, Treasury yields, foreign exchange moves, and equity sector positioning. The underlying BLS timetable is the authoritative source, and the indicator mix implied by CPI also carries the closely watched split between headline inflation and core inflation, which is why the release remains one of the most scrutinised items in the US data calendar. In practice, that gives the feed a clearer single-series focus than a broader economic calendar that combines several indicators at once. The Smart Calendar Feed is free to subscribe and can be added to Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, or Outlook, allowing the CPI timetable to sit alongside earnings, FOMC meetings, and other market events without manual entry. That format suits investors, economists, treasury teams, and newsroom desks that need the next inflation print visible in a normal calendar workflow rather than on a separate data page. The calendar updates regularly so changes to the BLS publication schedule, holiday adjustments, or other timetable revisions appear automatically. For anyone following the rhythm of US inflation reporting through the year, it provides a focused calendar view of a single release series whose market importance routinely extends well beyond the economics beat. It is also a practical way to keep one of the most market-sensitive data releases visible inside a broader policy and earnings schedule.
