What We Know

The Bureau of Economic Analysis’ May Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) data showed headline PCE at 4.1% year-over-year and a monthly gain of 0.4%, marking the highest annual rate since 2023. Major business outlets report core PCE also pushed higher, with one headline noting core inflation at 3.4% in May — its strongest reading since October 2023. This reacceleration of inflation is being read by markets and commentators as increasing the chance of additional Federal Reserve tightening. Several reports describe the Fed as having shifted into a “hawkish hold” and say market-implied rate-hike odds jumped to roughly 68%. Financial commentary characterizes the data as increasing near-term rate-hike risk and prompting market repositioning.
