Goldman Sachs’ November U.S. CPI Forecast: Core CPI to Rise 0.28%, Below Consensus

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics will release November CPI data on Wednesday, December 11. Goldman Sachs forecasts continued price increases in used cars, airfares, and auto insurance. Looking ahead, Goldman expects inflation to decelerate further over the next year, with monthly CPI gains ranging between 0.20%-0.25%. Factors like autos, rental housing, and labor market rebalancing will drive this trend, though trade policy changes may offset some of the impact.
