Core: +0.6% ! ========================================================= By Jeff Bater Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--Wholesale prices took their sharpest drop in three years during September as gasoline prices made a record plunge, but core inflation raced up triple the rate expected. The producer price index for finished goods fell by 1.3% on a seasonally adjusted basis last month, after increasing 0.1% in August, the Labor Department said Tuesday. The September drop in the PPI was the largest since prices fell 1.4% in April 2003. The producer price index for goods excluding food and energy costs increased 0.6% in September. This "core" rate dropped 0.4% in August. The September climb in the core rate was the largest increase since a matching rise in January 2005. In the 12 months ending in September, overall wholesale prices climbed 0.9% on an unadjusted basis. The core rate was up 1.2%. The median estimate of 24 economists surveyed by Dow Jones Newswires was a 0.7% decline in the overall PPI and a 0.2% climb in the core rate. The Labor Department will release consumer prices for September on Wednesday - data that will weigh on the Federal Reserve's next policy decision. The Fed meets Oct. 24-25 and is expected to keep its federal funds rate at 5.25% for a third meeting in a row following a long campaign of tightening to prevent the economy from heating up inflation. Tuesday's report showed producer prices for finished goods in the energy sector decreased 8.4% last month - the sharpest decline since 14.0% in July 1986. Gasoline fell a record 22.2%. Residential natural gas rose 1.8% and electricity dipped 0.1%. Home heating oil dropped 18.5%. Food prices increased 0.7% in September, as costs for pork rose 8.1% and milled rice climbed 3.6%. Wholesale prices of passenger cars increased by 2.8% in September - the largest climb since 3.0% in September 1990. Prices of light trucks climbed 3.5%. Printing trades machinery was 2.3% higher. Soaps and synthetic detergents advanced 2.1%. Deeper in the production pipeline, prices eased last month. Prices of raw materials, also known as crude goods, declined by 3.4%, after rising 2.2% in August. Intermediate goods prices decreased 1.4%, after climbing 0.4%. |
