Income growth and spending slow in May
Personal income rose 0.2 percent in May, far below April’s 0.6 percent, marking the weakest showing since January’s 2.5 percent drop and pointing to slow job gains. Consumer spending was flat in May after a 0.6 percent rise in April, tied to cold weather and weak autos demand, with a June rebound expected.

Fed Reserve raises rates again signaling further hikes
The Federal Reserve increased the federal funds rate by a quarter point to 3.25 percent, the ninth such rise since June 2004, with officials signaling more increases at upcoming meetings. The move pushed the prime rate to 6.25 percent as energy prices rise, yet policymakers said the economy remains firm with gradual labor market improvements.
