US Core Inflation Rate Falls to 2.5 Percent in January

The United States core inflation rate registered at 2.5% year-over-year for January 2026, matching consensus estimates. This marks a decrease from December’s reading of 2.6%. The latest figure continues a gradual downward trend in core inflation, remaining above the Federal Reserve’s 2% target but showing persistent moderation. Shelter costs were a primary contributor to the overall core inflation rate, offsetting declines in other categories. Compared to the 12-month average, the January rate is slightly lower, reflecting easing price pressures over the past year. Markets are now focusing on upcoming Federal Reserve communications for further signals on monetary policy. Updated 2/13/26
