The US Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Goods Price Index rose to 119.896 in the second quarter of 2026, an increase of approximately 2.01% compared to 117.528 in the first quarter, indicating a resurgence of goods inflation pressure during the quarter. Market analysis points out that this upward trend was mainly driven by energy prices and tariff-related goods, but single-month data at the end of the quarter in June already showed signs of cooling.
