Australia Producer Price Inflation QoQ

Australia’s final demand producer price index rose 1.3% quarter-on-quarter in the second quarter of 2026, accelerating from a 0.4% increase in the previous period and beating market forecasts for a 0.3% rise. This was the strongest price growth since the third quarter of 2023, led by a sharp rise in petroleum refining and petroleum fuel manufacturing (+37.5%) amid higher oil prices resulting from supply disruptions linked to the Middle East war. Heavy and civil construction (2.3%) also provided further upward pressure, amid rising freight and product costs. Property operators (1.0%) remained a key contributor, supported by strong demand and rising residential rents. Partly offsetting these increases was a drop in accommodation services (-12.3%), attributed to seasonal weakness in demand for short-term accommodation during the winter. On an annual basis, the PPI increased 3.6%, following a 3.0% rise in the first quarter, marking the highest growth rate since the first quarter of 2025. source: Australian Bureau of Statistics
