## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability x402stock-pce-data-a762be36
```

Example prompt: What's the latest PCE inflation reading from x402stock — both headline and core — and how does it compare to the Fed's 2% target?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation metric (PCE) for macro analysis, monetary policy research, or investment decisions. Prefer over CPI endpoints when modeling Fed behavior or assessing real consumer spending trends. Best suited for agents operating autonomously with x402 USDC payment capability and needing no API key setup.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient — returns 402 Payment Required
- Invalid or malformed request body returns 400 Bad Request
- Data unavailable for requested time period
- Rate limiting or proxy timeout from ZeroClick intermediary
- Network errors reaching the upstream x402stock API

## How this service works

US PCE (Personal Consumption Expenditures) price inflation — the Fed's preferred inflation gauge — with the latest headline and core (ex food and energy) index levels, each with year-over-year percent change, plus recent monthly history. No ticker needed. Complements the CPI endpoint with the measure the Fed actually targets. Sourced from the St. Louis Fed (FRED). From x402stock

## Output

Returns US Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) data including headline and core PCE index values, month-over-month and year-over-year percentage changes, and potentially historical time series data reflecting the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge.
