Fed’s Preferred Inflation Measure Rises 0.2% in April, as Expected

According to a closely watched measure released Friday by the Federal Reserve, inflation rose as expected in April, with markets anxious about when interest rates might begin to decline.

The personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index, excluding food and energy costs, increased by 0.2% for the period, matching the Dow Jones estimate.

On an annual basis, core PCE rose by 2.8%, 0.1 percentage points higher than the estimate.

Including the volatile food and energy categories, PCE inflation was 2.7% annually and 0.3% from the previous month. These figures were also in line with forecasts.
