How does Core CPI MoM come in at 1% above estimate yet YoY comes in 1% below estimate. Are there inconsistencies in who is making the estimate for each?

US #inflation hotter than expected. September CPI rose 8.2% YoY vs 8.1% expected. Core CPI accelerated to 6.6% YoY, highest since 1982.

Price increases over last year (CPI report)... Fuel Oil: +58.1% Gas Utilities: +33.1% Gasoline: +18.2% Electricity: +15.5% Transportation: +14.6% Food at home: +13.0% New Cars: +9.4% Food away from home: 8.5% Overall CPI: +8.2% Used Cars: +7.2% Shelter: +6.6% Medical Care: +6.5%
