The figure was in line with expectations and followed a 2.7% increase in July. On a monthly basis, CPI rose 0.4%, just above the 0.3% estimate.
Core CPI, which excludes food and energy, advanced 3.1% year-on-year and 0.3% month-on-month. The steady reading adds weight to expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates at its meeting next week.
