what happened
The Labor Department reported that its producer price index for final demand rose 0.3% in October, below the 0.4% economists had expected. The September gain was revised up to 1.4% from the previously reported 1.3%. Annual producer price growth accelerated to 6.5% from 6.3%, though it came in under the 6.6% forecast. The data was published by RTTNews and carried by TradingView.
Energy prices edged down 0.1% in October after jumping 10.0% in September. Food prices, however, climbed 1.3%, and transportation and warehousing services rose 2.0%. Core producer prices, which exclude food, energy and trade services, increased 0.5% for a second straight month, while their annual growth slowed to 4.9%.
Separately, the Labor Department said consumer prices rose 0.4% in October, slightly more than the 0.3% expected. Core consumer prices gained 0.3%, against forecasts of 0.2%.
why it matters
The mix of data is uneven: producers came in softer than expected, while consumer inflation ran slightly hotter. Bond markets typically respond to this kind of combination by reassessing expectations for Federal Reserve rates, and the dollar and stocks may move in different directions depending on which signal traders weigh more heavily.
