The release
Released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis on 13 March 2026 at 8:30 AM EDT. The Personal Income and Outlays came in at 0.4% for January 2026, against 0.3% in December 2025. Personal income is rising faster than before.
It arrived at the same moment as Durable Goods Orders, Durable Goods Orders Excluding Transportation, Gross Domestic Product Report, Personal Consumption Expenditures and Core Personal Consumption Expenditures, so the reaction measured on this page belongs to all of them together.
Measured by Clometrix
NEAR Protocol's volatility ratio was 1.00x, against 1.43x for a typical Personal Income release since 2021. Its volume ratio was 0.48x, against a typical 1.95x. Under 1.5x is not a reaction at all: the market barely noticed this release. 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.
How NEAR Protocol moved
NEAR Protocol was at $1.360 when the figure came out. Fifteen minutes later it was 0.74% lower, and an hour later unchanged. Its high-to-low range in the hour after was 1.47% of its price, against 1.47% in the hour before.
What made it matter
Since 2021, Personal Income releases in the two weeks before a Fed decision have moved NEAR Protocol less than those at other times: a median volatility ratio of 1.02x across 18, against 1.52x across 49. This one came out 5 days before the Federal Reserve's 18 March rate decision. Its own ratio of 1.00x compares with 1.02x for those, about what its circumstances would suggest.
How it compares
Across 66 Personal Income releases since 2021, NEAR Protocol's usual price swing is 1.43x. This one was 0.70 times the usual.
Thin line: Personal Income's usual, 1.43x. Thick line: this release, 1.00x. Under 1.5x counts as no reaction at all.
