The Federal Reserve's preferred inflation measure, the PCE Price Index, decreased slightly in May, reaching the lowest level in over three years. This could bolster the case for a rate cut in the autumn. Core prices rose 2.6% annually, matching expectations and marking the slowest increase since March 2021. Fed officials project only one rate cut by year-end, contrasting with market expectations of at least two cuts. Personal incomes in May increased by 0.5%, showing some stability in the labor market, while spending rose by 0.2%. The data release had minimal impact on stocks and bond yields.

U.S. monthly inflation remained flat in May, with a slight increase in service costs offset by the largest decrease in goods prices in six months, potentially paving the way for a Fed interest rate cut. Consumer spending also saw a marginal increase last month. The slow pace of underlying prices raised hopes for a 'soft landing' for the economy, with traders predicting a Fed rate cut in September. Inflation is receding after a spike in the first quarter due to previous rate hikes, and financial markets see a higher likelihood of policy easing starting in September.
