What This Release Is
Core PCE (the personal consumption expenditures price index excluding food and energy) is the gauge the Fed's inflation target is built on. The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) publishes it once a month, before the market opens. It uses a different basket than CPI, so the two can diverge; when the Fed talks about inflation, this is usually the number it means.
