In the United States, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) typically releases the CPI for a given month around the middle of the following month (for example, the January CPI is released around mid-February). The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) typically releases the other major measure of consumer prices, the PCE price index, around the end of the following month (for example, the January PCE price index is released around the end of February, after the CPI for January has been released).
