@Devo, is April 2023 CPI of 302.09 a projection? Adjusted or unadjusted?
Only the March CPI is out so far and it's 301.836 unadjusted; used for I-Bonds, TIPS), 301.808 (adjusted; commonly reported in the media). I am not a subscriber to YCharts, but it's free data also has only the March CPI.
@yogibearbull thanks for checking. this is what Ycharts said. The data is from April 12th, presumably for the April 10th release.

I might have explained it better or be more specific in the article. Next time. Thank you for checking and please let me know if you see any place where the numbers look off. I was trying to be a big sweep but dont really have a way to double check anything.
Consensus forecast for mom CPI for May 10th is 0.4% That would be bring April CPI index to be 303.01 and not the 302.09 that Ycharts has fwiw. So YCharts must have a different number for some unknown reason.
