In March, the U.S. PPI increased by 2.7% year-on-year, lower than the expected value of 3.3% and the previous value of 3.2%. The U.S. core PPI in March rose by 3.3% year-on-year, also below the expected value of 3.6% and the previous value of 3.4%. The U.S. PPI in March decreased by 0.4% month-on-month, marking the largest decline since October 2023, with an expectation of 0.2%, and the previous value revised from 0% to 0.1%. Data shows that the decline in U.S. PPI is influenced by falling energy prices, leading to a more moderate inflation. However, economists expect that as President Trump’s tariffs on imported goods take effect, inflation growth will accelerate later this year, and its impact may become clearer in next year's data
