This market resolves YES if the initial BEA Personal Income and Outlays release for May 2026 reports that headline current-dollar U.S. personal consumption expenditures (PCE) increased by 0.5% or more month-over-month. Use the headline PCE monthly percent change in the initial May 2026 Personal Income and Outlays release. Resolve NO if the initial headline value is +0.4% or lower, zero, or negative. Do not use PCE price-index inflation, core PCE inflation, real PCE, personal income, disposable personal income, personal outlays, saving rate, services-only, goods-only, annualized dollar changes, or later revisions unless BEA corrects the initial May 2026 release before resolution. If the May 2026 Personal Income and Outlays release is delayed, wait for the first BEA release containing the May 2026 headline PCE month-over-month percent change unless there is no such release by July 1, 2026, in which case resolve N/A.
