What is Consumer Price Index (CPI)?

The Consumer Price Index expresses the change in the current prices of the market basket of goods in a period compared to a base period. The CPI is usually computed monthly or quarterly. It is based on a representative expenditure pattern of urban residents and includes people of all ages.

What does the CPI measure?

As more people compete for apartments, rents go up. The CPI includes sales taxes. It excludes income taxes and the prices of investments, such as stocks and bonds. The CPI measures two commodities with wild price swings: food and energy commodities (oil and gasoline). These products are traded constantly on the commodities market.

How is CPI calculated?

CPI is calculated by tracking the change in the prices of a fixed basket of goods and services. The BLS refers to a variety of sources to calculate CPI, including the prices of goods and services from about 23,000 retail and service establishments throughout the U.S.

Risk warning: Digital asset trading is an emerging industry with bright prospects, but it also comes with huge risks as it is a new market. The risk is especially high in leveraged trading since leverage magnifies profits and amplifies risks at the same time. Please make sure you have a thorough understanding of the industry, the leveraged trading models, and the rules of trading before opening a position. Additionally, we strongly recommend that you identify your risk tolerance and only accept the risks you are willing to take. All trading involves risks, so you must be cautious when entering the market.
