.Scar Timiraos coming from the WSJ has tweeted that financial experts who map the CPI and also PPI to the core PCE, are anticipating an increase of 0.13% to 0.17% for the August PCE. A reading of 0.13% would round to 0.1%, while 0.17% will round up to 0.2%. In either instance (0.1% or 0.2%), it extends a streak of mild/target constant analyses.
As a factor of comparison, the core CPI launched previously today can be found in at 0.3% (0.281% unrounded).
