The United States Producer Price Index (PPI) held steady at 2.7% year-over-year in September, according to data updated on November 25, 2025. Both the current and previous indicators for September showed no change, reflecting a consistent pace in wholesale inflation when compared to the same month last year.
The PPI measures the average change over time in the selling prices received by domestic producers for their output, and a stable index indicates that the prices producers are paying remain unchanged, year over year. This stability can offer businesses a period of predictability for financial forecasting and strategic planning.
This steady performance raises questions about future inflationary trends and may influence monetary policy decisions, as the Federal Reserve continues to aim for a balanced approach to supporting economic growth while managing inflation. Investors and policymakers will be watching carefully to see if this trend continues in the upcoming months, as they weigh the ongoing impacts of past economic adjustments and global economic factors.
