2026.04.0912:30:00UTC+00US Real Personal Consumption Holds Steady at 0.1% in February

Real personal consumption in the United States rose 0.1% month-over-month in February 2026, matching the revised 0.1% increase recorded in January 2026, according to data updated on 9 April 2026. The unchanged pace suggests consumer spending, adjusted for inflation, continued to grow but at a modest and steady rate.

On a month-over-month basis, the February reading reflects a direct comparison with January, while the January figure itself was measured against December’s level. The flat profile over the two consecutive months indicates that, in real terms, households maintained their spending patterns rather than accelerating or cutting back. For analysts and investors, the data underscore a stable but subdued consumption backdrop early in 2026, an important signal given the central role of consumer demand in driving US economic activity.
