What Wholesale Inflation Surge Means for June CPI
from Macro Tuesdays with Fexingo: Weekly Economic News, Policy, and Market-Moving Data · host Fexingo
The Producer Price Index jumped 1.1% in May, double expectations, with energy costs spiking amid the Iran conflict. Lucas and Luna break down why this wholesale inflation signal matters more than usual for the Fed's next move—and what it could mean for the June CPI print. They connect the wholesale price surge to rising jobless claims, sticky core PCE, and the ECB's first rate hike since 2023. If you've been watching CPI at 4.2% and wondering whether the Fed has room to cut in 2026, this episode gives you the leading indicator to track. #ProducerPriceIndex #WholesaleInflation #PPISurge #EnergyCosts #IranConflict #CPI #CorePCE #FederalReserve #InterestRates #ECB #JoblessClaims #Inflation2026 #EconomicData #Macro #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #MacroTuesdays Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
