According to the latest DataTrack data, the seasonally adjusted US final demand services PPI for the second quarter of 2026 (Q2 2026) fell to 155.314, continuing its retreat from 155.61 in the previous period. Although external market reports indicate that the overall PPI has recently surged driven by the Iranian oil crisis, the downward trend in services data provides a degree of buffer against mounting price pressures. This shows that amid the resurgence of goods inflation, price stickiness in the services sector is showing signs of loosening.
