US Core PCE Prices Hold Unchanged in March

The core PCE price index in the US, which excludes volatile and energy prices and is Federal Reserve's chosen gauge of underlying inflation in the US economy, was unchanged from the previous month in March of 2025.

The result contrasted with expectations of a marginal increase.

From the previous year, the index rose by 2.6% to slow from the 3% jump from February, the softest increase since March of 2021.
