Personal Income and Outlays the PCE inflation report

When is the next PCE inflation report?

The U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis calendar puts the next Personal Income and Outlays, the PCE inflation report, at 8:30 AM EDT on Wednesday, Aug 26, 2026. The 13 dated entries JMM holds do not share a single Eastern clock time, and run from Jan 22, 2026 to Dec 23, 2026.

Both 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.

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.
