About PPI Exl. Food and Energy MoM — United States
DEFINITION
PPI Excluding Food and Energy Month-over-Month (MoM) is a financial indicator that measures the change in the Producer Price Index (PPI) for goods and services, excluding the volatile food and energy sectors, on a monthly basis. This indicator provides insight into the overall inflationary pressures in the economy, as food and energy prices can be highly volatile and can distort the overall PPI. It is often used by economists and investors to track the trend in prices for goods and services, and to make informed decisions about potential changes in the economy.
WHY THIS INDICATOR MATTERS
Inflation prints feed directly into central-bank policy expectations and real-yield calculations, and are among the most rate-sensitive releases on the calendar. The release is more useful as part of a longer-run signal than as a single-print catalyst. Released monthly.
WHAT CHANGED THIS MONTH
Latest reading (Aug 2013): actual 0.1 %, consensus 0.2 %.
WHAT'S NEXT
This indicator correlates most strongly with S&P 500 (Bullish Stocks, r=0.50) — a useful reference for index-focused traders.
