The Cleveland Fed nowcast for core PCE deflator (YoY) in June 2026 is 3.30%; the Wall Street consensus is estimated at approximately 3.3–3.4%. Prediction markets (RateSpike, Lines.com) assign only ~5% probability to a MoM print ≥0.3%, making a YoY value above 3.4% unlikely. June 2026 CPI data (–0.4% MoM, 3.5% YoY) supports the disinflation thesis. Cassandra.news expects a 68% probability of the annual rate printing below 3.40%, which would support the Fed's rate-cut path.
