The Producer Price Index (PPI) rose 0.5% in March, the same as February and below the 0.6% gain in January, according to a Tuesday (April 14) press release from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The figure was lower than expected, with Wall Street Journal reporting that analysts polled forecast a 1.1% increase. Reuters noted economists polled predicted a 1.1% rise. The March rise was driven by a 1.6% increase in prices for final demand goods, the largest rise since August 2023. Prices for final demand services did not change during March.

The PPI data were released on the same day that the NFIB reported that the Iran war and the subsequent surge in oil prices drove small business optimism below its 52-year average for the first time in a year in March.

Small business owners are having to absorb those higher input costs and pass them along to their customers.’
