.Chip Timiraos from the WSJ has tweeted that business analysts who map the CPI and also PPI to the core PCE, are actually forecasting an increase of 0.13% to 0.17% for the August PCE. A reading of 0.13% would certainly round to 0.1%, while 0.17% would certainly round up to 0.2%. In either scenario (0.1% or even 0.2%), it extends a streak of mild/target consistent analyses.
As an aspect of contrast, the core CPI launched previously today was available in at 0.3% (0.281% unrounded).
