Information about Wednesday's critical consumer price index release circulated a half-hour early on the Bureau of Labor Statistics website.
There was little unusual market activity in the half hour prior, indicating that the early release was not widely seen. The statement provided little other detail, but noted that the Labor Department agency has notified the Office of Management and Budget and the department's Office of the Inspector General."BLS takes its data security seriously and is conducting a full investigation into its procedures and controls to ensure the incident is not repeated," the bureau said.
The BLS several years ago modified the way it releases the data. Previously, it had provided media members advance copies under a lock-up at the bureau's Washington, D.C. office for release promptly at 8:30 a.m.
