[U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Plans to Release September CPI Data by End of Month] According to The New York Times, despite the federal government shutdown, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics is preparing to release September CPI data, though the exact timing has not yet been determined. The bureau had previously suspended operations due to funding interruptions and was unable to release the non-farm payroll report as scheduled. Currently, some employees have been recalled to complete data compilation work. This release may be related to the Social Security cost adjustment process, and delays could affect the announcement timing of cost-of-living adjustments. According to foreign media reports, the data is expected to be released by the end of the month.
