BitcoinWorld US PCE Inflation Data Confirms Steady Disinflation Trend, Core Rate Holds at 2.8% The latest US Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index data, released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis on March 28, 2025, confirms a steady disinflation trend.
Core PCE, the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation gauge, rose 2.8% year-over-year in February, matching economist expectations and holding steady from the previous month.
What the February PCE Data Shows The headline PCE price index increased 2.5% annually in February, slightly above January’s 2.4% reading.
On a monthly basis, headline PCE rose 0.3%, while core PCE—which excludes volatile food and energy prices—also increased 0.3% month-over-month. These figures align with the broader narrative of gradual disinflation rather than a rapid decline.
