The US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported on Friday that it revised the monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase for December lower to 0.2% from 0.3%. The Core CPI was unrevised at 0.3% for the same period.

November's CPI increase was revised higher to 0.2% from 0.1%, while the October's 0.1% increase was left unchanged. 

The BLS noted that CPI revisions reflect the new seasonal adjustment factors.
