The release
Released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis on 28 May 2026 at 8:30 AM EDT. The Personal Income and Outlays came in at 0.0% for April 2026, against 0.6% in March 2026. Personal income was flat.
It arrived at the same moment as Durable Goods Orders, Durable Goods Orders Excluding Transportation, Gross Domestic Product Report, Personal Consumption Expenditures, Core Personal Consumption Expenditures, Initial Jobless Claims and Continued Jobless Claims, so the reaction measured on this page belongs to all of them together.
Measured by Clometrix
Filecoin's volatility ratio was 1.15x, against 1.50x for a typical Personal Income release since 2021. Its volume ratio was 0.80x, against a typical 2.34x. 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 Filecoin moved
Filecoin was at $0.946 when the figure came out. Fifteen minutes later it was 0.53% higher, and an hour later 0.85% higher. Its high-to-low range in the hour after was 1.37% of its price, against 1.48% in the hour before.
What made it matter
Since 2021, Personal Income releases in the two weeks before a Fed decision have moved Filecoin more than those at other times: a median volatility ratio of 1.67x across 18, against 1.42x across 52. This one was not within two weeks of a Fed decision. Its own ratio of 1.15x compares with 1.42x for those, so it moved the price less than its circumstances would suggest.
How it compares
Across 70 Personal Income releases since 2021, Filecoin's usual price swing is 1.50x. This one was 0.76 times the usual.
Thin line: Personal Income's usual, 1.50x. Thick line: this release, 1.15x. Under 1.5x counts as no reaction at all.
