The preliminary quarterly core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index (annualized quarter-over-quarter) measures the change in core PCE, excluding food and energy, in the United States from one quarter to the next, expressed as an annual rate. This data is released quarterly by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) of the U.S. Department of Commerce, and it presents initial preliminary figures.
The annualized quarter-over-quarter data helps in understanding how core PCE is fluctuating over short periods. An increase in core PCE indicates rising inflationary pressures, potentially reducing consumer purchasing power. Conversely, a decrease in core PCE suggests a risk of deflation, possibly increasing consumer purchasing power.
This information is crucial for policymakers to assess inflation trends and develop appropriate monetary policies. It also serves as an essential resource for businesses and investors to evaluate inflation trends and make economic forecasts.
