US equities(^DJI,^GSPC, ^IXIC) are wavering going into Friday’s afternoon session after two key economic prints hit Wall Street this morning. Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) data — the Fed's preferred inflation gauge — came in line with expectations, while the consumer sentiment reading came in just above forecasts.
