United States (U.S.): Consumer Sentiment Slumps More Than Previously Estimated in March; PCE Price Index Rises in Line with Estimates in February

Consumer sentiment in the U.S. fell by more than estimated in March, according to revised data released by the University of Michigan. The consumer sentiment index was downwardly revised to 57.0 from a preliminary reading of 57.9. Economists expected the index to be unrevised. The consumer sentiment index is down sharply from a reading of 64.7 in February, plunging to its lowest level since hitting 56.7 in November 2022. The steep drop by the headline index largely reflected a substantial deterioration in consumer expectations, as the index of consumer expectations plummeted to 52.6 in March from 64.0 in February and hit its lowest level since July 2022. The report showed a more modest decrease by the current economic conditions index, which fell to 63.8 in March from 65.7 in February. 03/28/2025 - 10:36:00 (RTTNews)

A report released by the Commerce Department showed U.S. consumer prices increased in line with economist estimates in February, although core consumer prices rose by slightly more than expected.

Meanwhile, the report said the core PCE price index, which excludes food and energy prices, climbed by 0.4% in February after rising by 0.3% in January. Economists expected another 0.3% increase. The annual rate of growth by the core PCE price index also accelerated to 2.8% in February from an upwardly revised 2.7% in January. Economists had expected the year-over-year growth by the core PCE price index to tick up to 2.7% from the 2.6% originally reported for the previous month. The Federal Reserve's preferred readings on consumer price inflation were included in the Commerce Department's report on personal income and spending.
