About Personal Spending MoM US
Change in the inflation-adjusted value of all expenditures by consumers, published by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. This is significant data, though it tends to have a relatively mild impact because Retail Sales, which also covers consumer spending, is released about 2 weeks earlier. Consumer spending accounts for a majority of overall economic activity. It's one of the most important gauges of economic health due to the vast ripple effect consumer buying creates in the economy.
