Measured by Clometrix

Aave's volatility ratio was 2.66x, against 1.57x for a typical PCE release since 2021. Its volume ratio was 3.12x, against a typical 2.42x. That is a strong reaction by this release's own standard. Both compare the quarter hour of the release with an ordinary quarter hour that same day, where 1.00x is no change: volatility is how far the price ranged, volume how much traded.

Aave was at $287.86 when the figure came out. Fifteen minutes later it was 3.41% higher, and an hour later 3.41% higher. Its high-to-low range in the hour after was 4.36% of its price, against 2.8% in the hour before.

The release

Released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis on 20 December 2024 at 8:30 AM EST. The Personal Consumption Expenditures came in at 0.1% for November 2024, against 0.3% in October 2024. Prices are still rising, but more slowly than before.

It arrived at the same moment as Personal Income and Outlays and Core Personal Consumption Expenditures, so the reaction measured on this page belongs to all of them together.

What made it matter

Since 2021, PCE releases in the two weeks before a Fed decision have moved Aave about as much as those at other times: a median volatility ratio of 1.55x across 18, against 1.57x across 52. This one came out 2 days after the Federal Reserve's 18 December rate decision. Its own ratio of 2.66x compares with 1.57x for those, so it moved the price more than its circumstances alone would suggest.

Across 70 PCE releases since 2021, Aave's median volatility ratio is 1.57x.
