United States: Final Demand PPI (YoY) - All Items

Macro

2026-02-12
Description

The Producer Price Index (PPI) is calculated and published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The PPI measures the average change over time in the selling prices received by domestic producers for their goods and services. Unlike the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which measures price changes from the buyer's perspective, the PPI focuses on the seller's perspective. This often makes the PPI a leading indicator for the CPI.

Note: The difference between Seasonally Adjusted (SA) and Not Seasonally Adjusted (NSA) data lies in the fact that SA data is adjusted to eliminate the effects of seasonal patterns, providing a clearer view of long-term trends and underlying economic conditions.

AI Data Insight

The US December final demand PPI recorded a year-on-year increase of 2.9%, slightly down from the previous reading of 3.0% but significantly higher than market expectations of 2.6%. Data shows that declines in commodity prices such as gasoline offset some gains; however, a sharp rise in service sector margins caused core inflation to remain high (3.6%), forcing the market to reassess the Federal Reserve's easing path for 2026, with expectations for the pace of rate cuts becoming more cautious.
