US PPI inflation report for June was released today at 1:30 pm BST. While data on US producers' price growth is always worth watching, it should be said that today's report can be considered second-tier release given that CPI print was already released yesterday. Market was expecting PPI report to show a small acceleration in headline and core measures.
However, actual report turned out to be a big surprise. Headline and core PPI measures accelerated much more than expected, with core measure climbing to 3% - the highest level since Q2 2023. Release triggered a hawkish reaction in the markets with USD gaining, while US index futures and precious metals dropped.
