Release window

Where Personal Income and Outlays lands in the trading day

8:30 AM

4:00 AM 9:30 AM open 4:00 PM close 8:00 PM

1 hour before the 9:30 AM Eastern U.S. equity open, so the figure is public before the first trade of the session rather than during it.

What it measures

Personal Income and Outlays, in one paragraph

Personal Income and Outlays reports what American households earned, spent, and saved in a month, and it contains the personal consumption expenditures price index. That index, not the Consumer Price Index, is the inflation measure the Federal Reserve targets.

What JMM reads first

Read the core PCE price index first, month over month and year over year, because that is the series policy is written against. Then read real spending: an inflation reading that looks tame because households stopped buying is not the same result as one that looks tame because prices stopped rising, and only the spending line tells you which happened.

Event record

Every clock JMM stores for this record

Status: Awaiting receiptThe scheduled date has passed. JMM has not captured a release receipt for it, so this entry evidences the schedule and not the publication.
Period covered: January 2026
Schedule basis: Stated by the sourceBoth the dates and the release instants are stated by the BEA calendar subscription file itself, which carries an Eastern timezone and one entry per release. Most entries are 8:30 a.m. Eastern and the file states a later time for a few, which is why each page takes its clock from its own entry rather than from a rule. Nothing here is derived.
Effective period: Not specified by source
Scheduled time: Mar 13, 2026, 8:30 AM EDT
JMM retrieval: Aug 14, 2026, 8:17 AM EDT
Forecast connection: None published A published JMM question that settles on this record would freeze its probability before the time above.

The release clock

BEA publishes at 2 times of day, and this is one of them

8:30 AM ET 38
10:00 AM ET 1

Every one of the 39 dated BEA entries JMM holds lands on one of these 2 clock times. This release uses the busier of the two: 38 entries across 6 releases, 97% of the calendar. It is a pre-open slot: the figures are public before the U.S. equity session starts. Read in UTC the same slot would look like 2 different habits, because the published file carries a real timezone: the release holds 8:30 AM Eastern through daylight saving and it is the UTC instant that moves. Grouping on the publisher's own clock is what keeps that one habit one row.
