📢 🚨 US producer inflation higher than expected! 🚨

The Producer Price Index (PPI) for January rose 0.4% (vs. 0.3% expected), and the December figure was revised from 0.2% to 0.5%.

This reinforces inflationary pressure, which could lead the FED to keep interest rates high for longer. In addition, the PPI has components in common with the core PCE, the inflation indicator most closely monitored by the FED.

📊 Market watch! High interest rates for longer may impact risk assets. Stay tuned!
