US Core Producer Prices Rise Less than Expected

2026-07-15 12:34 By Andre Joaquim 1 min. read

Core producer prices in the United States, which exclude food and energy goods, rose by 0.2% from the previous month in June of 2026.

This contrasted with expectations of a 0.4% increase, slowing from the downwardly revised 0.1% increase in the previous month.

The data and its revisions indicated that the surge in energy prices from the energy shortage from the Middle East was not transmitted to underlying wholesale price growth at the magnitude feared.

Prices for final demand goods excluding food and energy rose by 0.2%, the least since November of 2025, and final demand services prices rebounded by 0.2% from the 0.1% drop in May.

From the previous year, core producer prices rose by 4.7%.
