TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS

Germany’s producer prices jumped by 14.2 percent from a year earlier in September 2021, accelerating from a 12.0 percent rise in the previous month and beating market expectations of 12.7 percent. It was the largest increase in producer costs since October 1974, when prices rose strongly during the first oil crisis, mainly due to a jump in energy prices, ongoing supply disruptions and a low base year. Energy cost climbed 32.6 percent, driven by natural gas (58.9 percent), while there were also increases in prices of intermediate products (17.4 percent), durable consumer goods (3.2 percent), capital goods (2.4 percent), and non-durable consumer goods (2.2 percent). On monthly basis, producer prices advanced by 2.3 percent in September, also above forecasts of 1 percent.
