The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers rose by 0.9% in March 2026, bringing the annual inflation rate to 3.3%. This increase was largely driven by a sharp rise in energy prices, which surged 10.9% during the month the biggest increase since 2005. Gasoline prices led this spike, jumping 21.2% and accounting for most of the overall CPI increase, while fuel oil prices climbed 30.7%. Over the past year, energy costs have risen by 12.5%.



In contrast, core inflation, which excludes food and energy, increased by a more moderate 0.2% in March and stands at 2.6% over the past 12 months. Within this category, airline fares, apparel, and housing costs saw increases, while prices for medical care, personal care, and used vehicles declined. Food prices remained stable overall, as a slight rise in dining costs was offset by a decline in grocery prices, driven by decreases in items such as eggs, cereals, and dairy products, although fruit and vegetable prices increased. Over the past year, food prices have risen by 2.7%.
