Odaily News The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) said that the CPI data released on Wednesday was accidentally released 30 minutes early because it accidentally uploaded some files to its website in advance. The BLS has notified the Office of Management and Budget and the Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Labor of this incident. The BLS takes data security very seriously and is currently conducting a full investigation to ensure that such incidents do not occur again.
