The Bureau of Economic Analysis will release the latest report on personal consumption expenditures (PCE) on Thursday, Dec 23rd. This data is used by the US Federal Government to gauge inflation. The expected inflation rate is 4.5%. The Federal Open Market Committee(FMOC) is also projecting the inflation will drop to 2% in the next two years. This is based on their plans to decelerate the buy back of mortgage bonds and increasing the interest rate as many as 3 times in 2022.
Consumer confidence index will be released on Wednesday, Dec 22.
It is expected to be at 110 compared to 109.5 in November. For context the CCI was at 128.3 in 2019. The slow increase is due to public’s concern over inflation as well new developments with the Omricon variant.
