Personal income in the United States accelerated in July 2026, rising 0.4% month-over-month, double the 0.2% gain recorded in June. The latest figures, updated on 26 August 2026, indicate a strengthening income trend that could support consumer spending in the second half of the year.

The July advance marks a notable pickup from June 2026, when personal income growth had slowed to 0.2% compared with the prior month. On a month-over-month basis, the new data show that income growth momentum is improving, with July’s increase outpacing the previous month’s change.

Because the indicator is measured on a month-over-month basis, July’s 0.4% rise reflects how personal income evolved relative to June, while June’s 0.2% figure represented the change versus May. This back-to-back comparison underscores a clear shift toward faster income growth as summer progressed.
