public trace
Disposable personal income is the official after-tax household income line, directly connecting labor income, taxes, transfers, inflation, and consumption capacity. This target resolves on 2026-06-25 under a first-print rule, with an expected 19 days lag. The same series can also spawn next release, +3 months, real DPI comparison questions.
April disposable personal income slipped to $23,472.2 billion SAAR after March's jump. The May forecast moves back above April because wages, Social Security, and Medicare benefits are expected to rise, partly offset by higher personal current taxes.
