US October CPI, due at 10:30 p.m. KST on November 10, will be the key inflation print ahead of the Federal Reserve's December rate decision. Russell Investments chief investment strategist BeiChen Lin said in a report cited by BlockBeats that even a slight upside surprise could effectively lock in a December rate hike, a conditional view based on pre-release CPI expectations. Lin argued the Fed will show little patience on inflation given a strong October employment report and signs of economic resilience. The data matters because it lands just before the Fed's final policy meeting of the year, with markets weighing whether sturdy hiring and growth keep policymakers inclined to tighten. What to watch next is the CPI print itself and how it shifts December rate-hike odds.
