US Financials Real Estate Consumer Discretionary
The US consumer price index rose 3.7% in the year to September 2026, against 3.6% forecast and 3.4% in August. Prices rose 0.6% in the month. Core CPI, excluding food and energy, was up 2.6% from a year earlier and 0.33% on the month. The Federal Reserve's next rate decision is on 28 October.
Faster inflation keeps the Fed's next move in focus, which feeds into mortgage rates for homebuilders and real-estate trusts, borrowing costs for leveraged companies and the cost of consumer credit. Banks earn more on floating-rate loans when rates stay high, while retailers face a squeeze on discretionary spending.
