|
8.3
February's producer price index rose 0.7% month-over-month, with core PPI up 0.5%, both well above consensus, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Friday. The reading—collected before the Iran war began Feb. 28—amplified structural input-cost pressures, prompting markets to reprice the Fed's 2026 rate path; Brent crude approached $109 and diesel topped $5, fueling energy rallies and weighing on small-cap stocks.
