The Fed's recommended March inflation measure will be released on Friday.
The Personal Consumption Expenditure Price Index is scheduled to be released Friday morning, giving the Federal Reserve a detailed look at the latest inflation indicators.
According to the Dow Jones Economist Survey for March, overall PCE is expected to increase by 0.3% from the previous month and by 2.6% from 12 months ago. Core prices, excluding food and energy costs, are expected to rise 0.3% from the previous month and 2.7% from the previous year.
The first-quarter gross domestic product report released Thursday revealed that PCE rose 3.4% in the period, significantly outpacing the 1.8% rise in the fourth quarter. The results triggered a sell-off in stocks as investors worried about signs of stagflation, a scenario in which economic growth slows but inflation rises.
