The release of Italy’s projected budget deficit sparked a risk-off trade in Europe overnight and is pushing Treasury prices modestly higher across the curve. European equity markets are down nearly 2% (Italian index -4.5%), and S&P 500 futures are down 8 points currently. Personal income and spending both rose at a 0.3% rate in August, with income growth just below expectations. The August PCE inflation report was relatively tame. The core measure was flat over the month versus expectations of a 0.1% increase, and on a year-over-year basis, PCE core was up 2%, as expected and unchanged from the prior month. Next week’s calendar is headlined by the September jobs report.
