EUROPEAN INFLATION: PPI ex-Energy Continues To Hover Around 1.0% Y/Y Handle
Nov-05 13:01
Eurozone PPI inflation was as expected in September, at -0.2% Y/Y after August's -0.6% was the first negative Y/Y rate since last November.
Energy deflation tapered off a little to -2.4% Y/Y (-4.1% August).
This left PPI ex-energy little changed vs August, at 0.9% Y/Y, having hovered around the 1.0% handle for six months now.
None of the underlying non-energy categories saw a directional jump in September, with the largest deviation vs August seen in Intermediate goods, printing 0.1% Y/Y (0.3% prior). Capital goods, durable consumer goods and non-durable consumer goods all remained within 0.1pp of their August prints, at 1.8%, 1.6% and 1.9% (all Y/Y), respectively.
Analysts generally expect little pipeline pressures in HICP core goods ahead, leaving energy developments as one of the main potential directional drivers of Eurozone PPI in the coming months.
