US DATA: Business Inflation Expectations Contained In June – Atlanta Fed

Jun-18 15:37

The Atlanta Fed’s Business Inflation Expectations survey for June (in-depth report, here) continued to show relatively modest impacts from US tariff policy. 

  • Firms’ 1Y ahead inflation expectations, defined in the details as the mean change in expected unit costs over the next 12 months, fell to 2.42% in June from 2.54% in May.
  • It’s down from a recent high of 2.76% in April (highest since Jul 2023) for the lowest since February but still a little above the 2.24% averaged in 2024 for context.
  • The increase and subsequent pullback is more in keeping with a modest increase in consumer expectations from the NY Fed’s survey as opposed to the sharper climbs in the U.Mich survey and less so Conference Board survey.
  • This release also sees the quarterly question for firms’ long-run unit cost inflation expectations 5-10Y ahead, with it unchanged at 2.8% from the March survey. It’s up from Q4 low of 2.6% (lowest since 3Q20) but has only increased back to the 2.8% averaged since the survey started in 2012 through 2019.
  • The combination points to a more mellow uptick in inflation expectations compared to sharper increases in prices paid components of ISM manufacturing and services surveys as of May.
