September PCE figures just dropped, landing exactly where markets expected.

Headline PCE came in at 0.3% month-over-month and 2.8% year-over-year—matching forecasts to the decimal. The core reading (which strips out volatile food and energy prices) showed 0.2% monthly growth and held steady at 2.8% annually, again in line with predictions.

No surprises this time around. The Fed's preferred inflation gauge continues its gradual cooldown, though it's still running above the 2% target. Worth watching how this influences rate expectations heading into Q4, especially with risk assets like crypto already pricing in a softer landing scenario.

Another "as expected" data release— the market had already priced it in, so nothing seems new.

nah this is where it gets spicy tho... everyone predicted it perfectly which means nobody actually knows anything lmao. the mempool's been eerily quiet too, almost like the market's holding its breath waiting for the fed to blink first. 2.8% still stings compared to that 2% fantasy we're all chasing fr fr
