What Is PCE (Personal Consumption Expenditures)?
The PCE price index is considered The Fed’s preferred index. It’s kinda like how we use the S&P 500 indice to measure the stock market, but it’s a price index that measures specific goods and services and it’s regionalized. Basically, it's a guage on what Americans are spending and helps track inflation. It’s currently +2.8% YOY (October 2024), which is up from +2.7% in September 2024 - not what we want to see, we’d like to see it go down.

In Episode 15 we explained inflation and learned about PPI & CPI:

PPI: producer price index = is the perspective of the seller

CPI: consumer price index = is the perspective of the buyer

Updated PPI Data

What is the difference between the CPI and the PCE Index?
The CPI measures the change in the out-of-pocket expenditures of all urban households and PCE measures the change in goods and services consumed by all households, and nonprofit institutions serving households.
