TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS
Germany’s producer prices surged by 10.4 percent from a year earlier in July 2021, accelerating from an 8.5 percent rise in the previous month and beating market expectations of 9.2 percent. It was the largest increase in producer costs since first oil crises in January 1975, reflecting a low base effect from last year due to the coronavirus-induced restrictions and the ongoing economic recovery. Main upward pressure came from intermediate products (15.6 percent) and energy (20.4 percent), followed by durable consumer goods (2.2 percent), non-durable consumer goods (1.8 percent) and capital goods (1.8 percent). On monthly basis, producer prices advanced by 1.9 percent in July, also above forecasts of 0.8 percent.
