The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a widely used economic indicator that tracks the average change over time in prices paid by consumers for a basket of goods and services. Compiled by statistical agencies, it reflects inflation trends and helps policymakers, businesses, and investors assess purchasing power and cost-of-living changes. CPI data influences monetary policy decisions, interest rates, and market expectations.
