The Federal Reserve's preferred inflation measure, the PCE price index, indicates that price pressures in the US economy are persisting, according to a New York Times report. The reading suggests inflation remains above comfortable levels, keeping questions alive about when or whether the central bank can ease interest rates further. Economists and markets are watching closely for what it means for monetary policy.
Why now: Fresh PCE inflation data is out, and it shapes expectations about the Fed's next interest-rate moves.
