Inflation jumped in September in final report before elections
Original: Prices increased sharply in September in last inflation report ahead of elections
US consumer prices rose sharply in September, according to the final inflation report to be published before the upcoming elections. The figures are likely to weigh on campaigns, as cost-of-living concerns remain a top issue for voters, and economists will be watching how candidates respond to the data.
Why now: The last inflation data before an election directly affects voters' cost-of-living concerns and campaign messaging.
