Bitcoin at the Personal Income and Outlays, 29 October 2026
The Personal Income and Outlays came in at 0.2% for September 2026, against 0.2% in August 2026. Personal income is still rising, but more slowly than before.
In plain words: in the 15 minutes after the news, Bitcoin's price swung 1.24 times as much as it normally does, against 2.06 times for a usual Personal Income release. An hour later it was 0.17% higher.

Words you will see here
Six ideas explain every page on the site.
- Release
One publication of a report, like the CPI for March. Each has a fixed date and time.
- Consensus
What economists expected the figure to be, before it came out.
- Surprise
The gap between the figure and the consensus. Markets often react to the surprise more than to the figure.
- Price swing
Also called the volatility ratio. How far the price ranged in the 15 minutes after a release, against a normal 15 minutes that day. 1.00x means no change.
- Reaction
The price swing judged against what that report usually does for that coin: quiet, muted, ordinary, strong or exceptional.
- Forecast
The range a coin moved in after past releases of a report, drawn as a chart. Not a prediction of a price.

Where do the numbers come from?
Prices are Binance's 1-minute candles. Report dates and figures come from the US agencies that publish them: BLS, BEA, the Census Bureau and the Federal Reserve.
