The Fed’s preferred measure of inflation shows signs of cooling

The Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge continues to show signs of cooling, accompanied by moderate growth in consumer spending - good news for central banks aiming to control rising prices and curb demand. In May, the personal consumption expenditure (PCE) index rose 2.6% from a year earlier, meeting economists' expectations and down slightly from April's 2.7% increase.
