what happened

According to TradingView, citing RTT News/dpa-AFX, core goods prices in the British consumer price index rose 1.05% year on year in September. A second report from the same source gives the figure as 1.0%.

For comparison, the consensus forecast was 0.9%, the Bank of England projection was 1.09%, and the August reading stood at 0.91% (0.9% in the second report).

why it matters

Core goods exclude food and energy, so this category shows how prices of manufactured products are moving. Faster growth here could strengthen the case against an early easing of Bank of England policy, which matters for sterling and UK gilts. The discrepancy between the two reports should be checked against official statistics.
