Producer prices in the US unexpectedly fell 0.5% month-over-month in July of 2022, following a downwardly revised 1% rise in June and beating market forecasts of a 0.2% increase. It is the first decline in the PPI in over two years, mostly due to a 16.7% drop in gasoline prices. Also, the cost of diesel fuel, gas fuels, oilseeds, iron and steel scrap, and grains moved lower. In contrast, cost of services edged up 0.1%, mainly due to a rise in prices for margins for fuels and lubricants retailing (12.3%) and transportation and warehousing services (0.4%). Also, producers paid more for services related to securities brokerage and dealing, hospital outpatient care, automobiles, automobile parts retailing, and transportation of passengers. On an annual basis, producer inflation fell to 9.8%, the lowest since October and compared to forecasts of 10.4%.
