Economic calendar: FED's preferred inflation gauge, PCE in the spotlight 🔔

١٠:٠٥ ص ٣٠ أغسطس ٢٠٢٤

The end of the week, and also the end of August, promises to be more interesting than the previous days of this week. Investors will receive the U.S. PCE inflation data and inflation expectations from the University of Michigan.

The end of the summer has been particularly "boring" on global financial markets. During the last week of August, there were practically no significant data releases. However, today investors can expect a bit more volatility with the release of July's U.S. PCE data. The Fed prefers PCE over the CPI index because the PCE takes into account current changes in consumer behavior and a broader range of the consumption basket. Analysts expect a slight increase in both the headline and core values, to 2.6% and 2.7% year-over-year, respectively. This is a 0.1 percentage point increase compared to June's report.
