Food away from home 5.4% of the basket · BLS carry-forward · graded vs CUUR0000SEFV
This component has no live source yet: its index carries the official BLS series forward between prints, so ours and BLS coincide by construction. The receipts below still show its weight, momentum and contribution.
Momentum compares the index with the same day-of-month 3 and 6 calendar months earlier, compounded to a year. Indexes are not seasonally adjusted — short-window annualized rates carry seasonality.

Monthly changes the outlook carries for this component; a forward-driver where one applies, else the trailing median of its own real changes. Projection, not a promise.
