When US inflation data lands: the next CPI days in UK time, with ET

The US CPI release dates 2026 still to come are Tuesday 10 November and Thursday 10 December, both at 13:30 UK time (8:30am ET). Each report covers the previous month, so 10 November brings October inflation and 10 December brings November.

This guide lists the next dates with both clocks, shows where inflation stands, and explains how traders in the US can plan gold trades around the release. The free Forexuro Telegram channel posts a heads up before big releases and free signals every trading day.

US CPI release dates 2026 and early 2027

All five dates fall while both the US and the UK are on standard time, so the gap is five hours. US clocks move forward on 14 March 2027 and UK clocks on 28 March 2027, so only a release inside that two week window would show a four hour gap. The US CPI page keeps the release history, and the economic calendar shows each date next to other events.

Where US inflation stands

Headline CPI rose to 3.7% in September 2026 from 3.4% in August, and core CPI, which excludes food and energy, rose to 2.6% from 2.4%. Headline inflation has been above 3% in every month since March 2026. Our US CPI October 2026 preview covers what to watch in the next release.

That matters for the dollar and for gold. Markets priced a Fed rate rise in December at about 73% this week, so a hot October figure on 10 November would support the hike case and a soft one would weaken it. Our guide to CPI and PPI data explains how traders read the headline, the core figure and the monthly rate.

How a gold signal maps to Micro Gold futures

Many US traders follow our gold signals with COMEX futures: the Micro Gold contract (MGC) covers 10 troy ounces and the full size contract (GC) covers 100. A $1 move in gold is worth $10 on one MGC and $100 on one GC.

Take a winning example from our record. On 30 October 2026 Forexuro posted a gold sell at $3,975 with targets at $3,970, $3,950 and $3,935; the third target was hit, a move of $40 an ounce. On one MGC that is $400, and on one GC it is $4,000. A trader holding three MGC contracts and closing one at each target would have banked $50, $250 and $400, or $700 in total. Partial closes like this sit comfortably with the FIFO way US accounts handle positions, because each contract closes in the order it was opened.

Every closed gold trade is on the XAU/USD signal results page. To size a position before a CPI release, use the gold position size calculator, and see Forexuro for US traders for how the service fits US hours.

A simple plan for CPI morning

Check gold and the dollar pairs on gold today before 8:30am ET, decide in advance whether you will trade the first move or wait for the market to settle, and set the stop in dollars before the number. Our take profit ladder guide explains why three targets help when the first reaction reverses.
