U.S. Producer Prices Rise 0.3% in October, Below Headline Forecast
U.S. producer prices increased 0.3% month over month in October, slightly below the 0.4% forecast and sharply slower than the previous 1.4% increase.
Core producer prices, which exclude food and energy, also rose 0.3% during the month, matching expectations and easing from the prior 0.8% increase.
The data suggest upstream inflation pressures moderated significantly in October after the unusually strong rise in the previous month.
