Mexico’s Producer Price Index (PPI) rose to 3.00% year-over-year in August 2026, marking an acceleration from 2.60% in July 2026, based on the latest data updated on 9 September 2026. The figures are calculated on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month with the same month a year earlier.
The uptick in August interrupts the softer producer inflation seen in July, when annual PPI growth had eased to 2.60%. With August’s reading moving higher, the data suggest renewed upward pressure at the producer level, which could signal future cost pass-through to consumers if the trend persists. Investors and policymakers will be watching subsequent releases closely to gauge whether this marks the start of a new phase of rising producer prices or a one-off adjustment in Mexico’s inflation dynamics.
