The energy shock is pushing inflation up, and producer prices say more is in the pipeline.
  • Consumer prices run 4.0% yearly in September on this page's series; the news reports 3.7% on a differently adjusted one, with gasoline up 9.1% in the month.
  • Producer prices rose 6.3% over the year to September, the biggest gain since December 2022, and it is broader than energy: core producer prices run 5.0%.
  • Gasoline at $4.33 a gallon (Oct 12) is up 41.5% in a year; diesel's 66% rise since February feeds through supply chains.
  • The 10-year breakeven, the inflation the bond market expects, sits at 2.32% (Oct 15): markets still trust the 2% target; that trust is what the Fed defends.
