The latest data on Estonia's Producer Price Index (PPI) for January 2024 indicates a positive development compared to the previous month. In December 2023, the PPI had dropped to -4.4%, but the most recent figure for January 2024 shows an improvement as the index stands at -1.5%. This change marks a significant decrease in the negative trend observed in the PPI.
The Year-over-Year comparison reveals that while there is still room for growth, the current figure is a step in the right direction for Estonia's manufacturing sector. The updated data, released on 29 February 2024, provides insight into the country's economic performance and will be closely monitored by analysts and policymakers alike. As Estonia continues to navigate economic challenges, the improvement in the PPI offers a glimmer of hope for the months ahead.
