The Fed’s key inflation gauge, Core PCE—measuring consumer spending minus volatile food and gas prices—just hit a seven-month low at 2.6%. Meanwhile, President Trump and Ukrainian President Zelenskyy did not sign the anticipated rare earth mineral deal, following a heated White House exchange where Trump called Zelenskyy “disrespectful” and “not ready for peace.” The deal was expected to help offset the billions sent to Ukraine.
