Within core, new vehicles -0.4% (NSA +0.3%), used cars -0.5% (NSA -1.2%), recreation flat, and medical services +0.1% held down the total. OER at +0.1% and +0.2% YOY remains very modest and should continue to moderate CPI ahead. Food +0.2% as cereals and meats jumped but fruits & veg fell. Energy +0.2% as nat gas -5.7% in an offset to higher gas and fuel oil. This was a little better than expected and CPI's slow gains show why the Fed remains concerned about prices.
