The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) was unchanged in August on a seasonally adjusted basis after rising 0.1 percent in July. Increases in the indices for shelter, transportation, used cars and trucks, and medical services outweighed decreases in energy costs.
The all items index increased 1.7 percent for the 12 months ending August.
