United States Personal Spending MoM
Consumer spending on goods and services in the United States economy is measured by Personal consumption expenditures (PCE). It contributes to over two-thirds of domestic final spending, and as a result, it is the key engine driving future economic growth. When comparing current spending to future consumption, PCE reveals how much of a household's income is spent on current consumption, as opposed to how much is saved for future consumption. PCE also gives a detailed estimate of the types of products and services that are purchased by households. Examples include the proportion of expenditure accounted for by discretionary items such as vehicles or the adjustments made by customers in reaction to price variations such as a major increase in the cost of fuel.
A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the USD while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the USD.
