Measured by Clometrix

TRON's volatility ratio was 3.15x, against 1.43x for a typical Personal Income release since 2021. Its volume ratio was 9.89x, against a typical 1.73x. That is more than twice what this release usually does. 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 TRON moved

TRON was at $0.3391 when the figure came out. Fifteen minutes later it was 0.18% higher, and an hour later 0.21% higher. Its high-to-low range in the hour after was 0.56% of its price, against 0.32% in the hour before.

The release

Released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis on 29 August 2025 at 8:30 AM EDT. The Personal Income and Outlays came in at 0.4% for July 2025, against 0.3% in June 2025. Personal income is rising faster than before.

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

What made it matter

Since 2021, Personal Income releases in the two weeks before a Fed decision have moved TRON about as much as those at other times: a median volatility ratio of 1.36x across 18, against 1.49x across 52. This one was not within two weeks of a Fed decision. Its own ratio of 3.15x compares with 1.49x for those, so it moved the price more than its circumstances alone would suggest.

Its record

Across 70 Personal Income releases since 2021, TRON's median volatility ratio is 1.42x.

How it compares

Across 69 Personal Income releases since 2021, TRON's usual price swing is 1.43x. This one was 2.21 times the usual.

Questions about this page

Is 3.15x a lot?

For a Personal Income release it is exceptional: the usual is 1.43x. Each report has its own usual size, and its releases show it.

Will the next Personal Income do the same?

Nobody can say. A forecast shows the range TRON moved in after past Personal Income releases, so you can plan for the likely size of the move.

What is PCE, and why does the Fed watch it?

PCE is the Personal Consumption Expenditures price index published by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. The Federal Reserve measures its 2 percent inflation goal with the PCE price index. PCE, Core PCE and Personal Income are released together at 8:30 a.m. ET and share one reaction. Their median Bitcoin price swing since 2021 is 2.03x, which places them in Tier 2.
