3. PCE Price Index and Core PCE Price Index - Inflation
What is Core PCE?
Consumer spending, Real PCE, is a major driver of the economy. Increased buying of both goods and services contributed to an upward revision in GDP. Consumer spending is critical because it drives roughly 70% of growth and correspond to the amount of money spent by household in an economy. Consumer Spending is also known as Consumption or Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE) and includes durables, like TV, and nondurables, like food. Changes in personal income signal changes in consumer spending. The income and outlays data are another handy way to gauge the strength of the consumer sector in this economy and where it is headed. The PCE or Cosumer Spending is indicative of the general consumption by individuals and their willingness to spend. Sharply declining or negative values indicate reduced consumption and are likely to correspond to times of economic stress. |
