Wachovia


Consumer prices rose 0.3 percent and prices excluding food and energy items rose 0.2 percent. Both gains were in line with expectations and possibly even a little better than that. The core CPI was actually rounded up to 0.2 percent and the change over the past three months has fallen back to a 2.0 percent annual rate.
