Report shows May personal income increased twice as fast as spending

NEW YORK (CNNfn) - Personal income and spending growth slowed in May,
coming in close to analysts' expectations.

The Commerce Department reported Friday that personal income rose 0.4
percent in the month, slightly more than forecast. A survey by Briefing.com
forecast that personal income would show a 0.3 percent rise.

Both numbers are well off the gains posted in April, when income climbed 0.7
percent and spending increased 0.4 percent.
