Core PCE Price Index - 06/24/26
The inflation report the Federal Reserve watches more closely than any other has just been released...
So what does it tell us about the future of interest rates—and the markets?
In today's episode, we break down the latest Core PCE Price Index, the Fed's preferred measure of inflation, and explain why today's numbers could have a major impact on stocks, bonds, and investor expectations for the months ahead.
The big questions are:
Is inflation finally under control?
Or are hopes for lower interest rates fading once again?
We'll discuss:
What the latest Core PCE report revealed
Why the Federal Reserve focuses on Core PCE over CPI
How today's data could influence future interest rate decisions
The impact on equities, bonds, commodities, and the U.S. dollar
What traders should be watching next
But inflation isn't the only story moving markets.
We'll also take a closer look at Micron Technology and its latest developments, examining how the memory chip giant is influencing the broader semiconductor industry and AI supply chain.
What does Micron's outlook mean for companies like Apple?
We'll discuss:
Why Micron's performance matters to the entire tech sector
How semiconductor pricing impacts Apple's margins
Whether AI-driven demand is creating new opportunities—or new risks—for Big Tech
