No figures for October 2025: the Bureau of Labor Statistics could not collect prices during the federal government shutdown (Oct. 1 to Nov. 12, 2025), and for most consumer price series it published no October 2025 index. These average prices have no October 2025 value either. Source: BLS, 2025 federal government shutdown impact on the Consumer Price Index.

Each line is divided by its own value in the range's first period that both series have, so both are 100 there, and 110 means 10 percent higher than then. The index compares how much each has changed, not their levels. A month of monthly data is one or two numbers, so the shortest range is a year.

Data table

Index columns are 100 in Aug. 2021, the base of the 5Y chart; each other range is indexed to its own first shared period, named above its chart.
