The Producer Price Index report indicates that wholesale inflation for final demand rose by 0.5% in January. This figure exceeded economists' expectations of 0.3% growth and followed a 0.4% increase in December. Core PPI, excluding food and energy, climbed 0.8% during the month.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics released the latest Producer Price Index data, showing a 0.5% rise in wholesale inflation for final demand in January. This marked an acceleration from December's 0.4% gain and surpassed forecasts of 0.3%.

Core PPI, which strips out volatile food and energy prices, increased by 0.8% in January, up from 0.6% the previous month. In contrast, the PPI for finished goods declined by 0.8% month-over-month, a sharper drop than the -0.1% seen in December.

These figures provide insight into early-stage price pressures in the U.S. economy. The report, authored by Jennifer Nash, was published on February 27, 2026.
