Core Personal Consumption Expenditures Index (Core PCE) in the United States for May. This index is the preferred measure of inflation for the U.S. Federal Reserve, as it excludes the volatile prices of food and energy to provide a clearer picture of core inflation in the economy.

Financial markets and economists are closely monitoring this index data, as it directly impacts the monetary policy decisions of the central bank, particularly interest rates. Any unexpected rise in Core PCE may indicate persistent inflationary pressures, potentially prompting the Federal Reserve to maintain a tight monetary policy or delay interest rate cuts. Conversely, a decline in the index may indicate a decrease in inflation, supporting expectations for interest rate cuts.
