Method update · October 5, 2026
- Headline annual inflation uses the unadjusted BLS all-items CPI; seasonally adjusted CPI remains the real-wage input.
- Comparison rows distinguish conditions from changes against actual pre-term observations.
- Saved versions freeze the data, calculation code and reporting checkpoint.
- Accepted source responses have current hashes and inputs for derived calculations.
- VTI completed-week updates are checked against independent adjusted returns, within a 0.2 percentage-point reconciliation allowance for rounded returns.
Comparison-card presentation: matched readings and one plain-language difference come first. Starting readings and additional calculations are expandable. Data, reporting windows and full-precision calculations are unchanged.
