美国经济分析局：2026年9月个人收入增长0.2%，PCE价格指数环比上涨0.5%

Personal income increased $54.5 billion (0.2 percent at a monthly rate) in September, according to estimates released today by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). Disposable personal income (DPI)—personal income less personal current taxes—increased $52.7 billion (0.2 percent), and personal consumption expenditures (PCE) increased $113.1 billion (0.5 percent).

Personal outlays—the sum of PCE, personal interest payments, and personal current transfer payments—increased $113.0 billion in September. Personal saving was $911.1 billion, and the personal saving rate—personal saving as a percentage of DPI—was 3.8 percent.

The increase in current-dollar personal income in September primarily reflected increases in compensation and government social benefits.

The $113.1 billion increase in current-dollar PCE in September reflected increases of $35.1 billion in spending on goods and $78.1 billion in spending on services.

Real PCE increased $2.6 billion (less than 0.1 percent at a monthly rate) in September.

From the preceding month, the PCE price index for September increased 0.5 percent. Excluding food and energy, the PCE price index increased 0.3 percent.

From the same month one year ago, the PCE price index for September increased 3.6 percent. Excluding food and energy, the PCE price index increased 3.1 percent from one year ago.

Technical Notes

Changes in personal income and outlays for September

The September increase of $54.5 billion in personal income primarily reflected increases in compensation and government social benefits.

• Within compensation, the increase was led by private wages and salaries based on U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ (BLS) Current Employment Statistics (CES).
• The increase in government social benefits was led by Medicare, based on data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and the Budget of the U.S. Government.

Revisions to personal income

Estimates have been updated for July and August reflecting revised BLS CES data. The revision to personal interest income was led by monetary interest, based on newly available data from the U.S. Bureau of the Fiscal Service.
