The U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis&nbsp;to announce the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) inflation data for November today. The annual PCE inflation is expected to further cool to 2.8% from 3 last month, with no rise in the monthly rate. Also, the Core PCE, the Fed’s preferred gauge to measure inflation, is expected to rise 0.2% month-on-month while the annual rate is predicted to decline to 3.3%, marking its lowest level since 2021. 
Wall Street estimates are mostly in line with market consensus in response to recent Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s projecting <a href="https://coingape.com/fed-plans-for-three-rate-cuts-in-2024-altcoin-market-rally-continues/#:~:text=A%20consensus%20among%20most%20officials,contingent%20on%20favorable%20inflation%20performance." target="_blank" rel="noopener">three rate cuts in 2024</a>. The market currently has a 45% chance that the Fed will start rate cuts in March. Moreover, the CME FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shows</a> a 71% probability of a 25 bps rate cut in March.
