Thursday's PCE Price Index Release to Shine a Spotlight on Inflation Trends On Thursday, the Commerce Department is set to release the January figures for the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index, which is highly regarded by the Federal Reserve as a key measure of inflation. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones anticipate a monthly increase of 0.3% and a year-over-year rise of 2.4%. This upcoming release is drawing significant attention due to its potential implications for Federal Reserve policy decisions. Economist Mark Zandi has expressed concern that if the Federal Reserve maintains its current stringent economic policies, it could significantly risk the ongoing economic expansion. This report, often overlooked in the past, is now in the spotlight as investors and policymakers alike assess its impact on future monetary policy. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Fed’s Favorite Inflation Gauge Up 2.9% from a Year Ago READ MORE U.S. Labor Market Surges with 353,000 New Jobs in January, Crushing Expectations READ MORE Gold Expert Talks 2024 Outlook, Plus Forecast for Silver, Platinum and Palladium READ MORE Fed's Favored Inflation Measure May Show Softer Rise Than CPI Suggests READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
