The short answer. Wall Street is waiting on October's consumer price index, because Waller said a hot reading could call for a bigger December hike than the quarter point he leans toward. Core prices rose 0.3% or more in 4 of the first 9 months of 2026, August and September included, while economists polled by Dow Jones expect 0.2% for October, CNBC reported. A bigger hike would make loans costlier for families and companies.

The CPI report and a December Fed rate hike
A rate hike makes borrowing cost more, which the Fed uses to slow rising prices. Waller leans toward a quarter-point hike in December, and said a hot October reading would mean a half point should be considered.
Waller spoke at a conference in London on Tuesday morning, November 10, hours before the report. "I am leaning toward supporting an increase in our policy rate of 25 basis points at the FOMC's December meeting," he said. A basis point is a hundredth of a percentage point, so 25 is a quarter point (Federal Reserve).
He then set a condition. If October's core CPI, which leaves out food and energy, comes in "around 0.3 percent or even higher," he said, "a 50 basis point hike in the policy rate should be considered at the December meeting." He added that a smaller step would put the Fed's credibility at risk (Federal Reserve).
He also named what he will look for in the report. He wants to see how widely prices are rising, whether prices of high-tech goods tied to the AI buildout keep climbing fast, and whether higher energy costs are passing into other prices (Federal Reserve).

That line is close to recent readings. Core prices rose 0.3% or more in 4 of 2026's first 9 months, including August and September, the Bureau of Labor Statistics index shows, and September's overall index jumped 0.6% (BLS). Waller called September's inflation data "bad" (Federal Reserve).
The report comes at 8:30 a.m. ET (BLS). It will carry no yearly rate, because the government could not collect prices in October 2025 during the shutdown, as StockTitan's CPI preview explains. So the monthly change is the number traders will watch.
