  • Ex-transportation. Actual: -0,2% MoM. Expected: 0.0% MoM. Previous: 0.2% MoM

The US dollar strengthened after the release of the data, putting pressure on EURUSD. The upward surprise in PCE inflation strongly supports further interest rate hikes. Personal income met expectations, while personal spending by Americans surprised with an increase, indicating that there is still strong demand in the economy, which may make it challenging for the Federal Reserve to bring inflation down to its 2% target.
