About this event

The October 2026 figures cover personal income and outlays for that month, and the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis releases them on Wednesday, November 25, 2026 at 8:30 am ET (13:30 UTC).

Personal income is the money people receive from wages and salaries, government benefits such as Social Security, dividends, interest, business ownership and other sources. The PCE price index tracks the prices paid for goods and services by people living in the United States, or by those buying on their behalf.

Why it matters

The FOMC's next interest rate decision, on December 9, 2026, is the first after this release, and the FOMC judges 2 percent inflation as measured by the annual change in this price index to be consistent with its mandate.
