U.S. inflation accelerated in September, with the annual inflation rate climbing to 3.7%, up from 3.4% in August.2 Rising gasoline prices emerged as a primary driver of the month's price increases.2
Energy costs played a particularly significant role in the inflationary surge. Gasoline prices jumped 34% year-over-year, accounting for more than half of the overall price gains, while fuel oil prices climbed 74% compared to the same period last year.2 According to the American Automobile Association, average gas prices exceeded prior-year levels by more than one dollar per gallon.2 Additionally, airline ticket prices rose 22.4%, and the monthly consumer price index increased 0.6% for the month.2 Core inflation, which excludes volatile energy and food categories, reached 2.6% on an annualized basis.2
The higher cost of living has fueled widespread discontent among American households. Data from Brown University indicates that elevated energy prices attributed to geopolitical tensions resulted in losses exceeding $1,020 per household, totaling $133 billion across all U.S. consumers.2 A recent Reuters/Ipsos survey found that 78% of Americans blamed government policies for inflation outpacing wage growth, with 57% of the surveyed Trump supporters sharing this view.2 This September reading marks the highest inflation rate before a midterm election since 1990, excluding pandemic-related disruptions.2 The Federal Reserve raised interest rates for the first time last month, driving 30-year mortgage rates to 7.40%.2
