CloudQuant Core CPI Forecast
Researchers at CloudQuant utilized cutting edge machine learning techniques and an array of alternative datasets to predict Core CPI approximately 3 weeks before its actual release.
The dataset contains predictions and actuals for Core CPI and the two most commonly reported metrics. These metrics are the year-over-year percent change in Core CPI, as well as the month-to-month change in the year-over-year number.
The dataset can be used both as a macroeconomic snapshot for longer term strategies, or as an indicator in shorter term strategies centered around the release date of the actual CPI numbers (this date varies month to month but is normally between the 10th and 15th).
