Previous:/ Forecast: 2.8%
Core PCE pride index showed a 2.8% annual increase in September, higher than expected. The release was put off several weeks by the government shutdown, which had caused a halt to data collection and economic reports.
Though the September data is backward-looking, it is the last price reading the Fed will get before its monetary policy meeting next week. That could further complicate policy path with Powell under investigation.
Trump has threated to raise tariffs on some European countries that voiced opposition to his plan to take control of Greenland. Renewed trade tension across the Atlantic Ocean may help push prices higher.
