Analysts quickly linked the weaker PPI reading to expectations for tomorrow’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) release. Since PPI often influences consumer costs, a softer reading could mean CPI also comes in weaker than expected. If confirmed, this trend could give the Federal Reserve more flexibility on monetary policy, potentially reducing the urgency for aggressive tightening. Markets, particularly equities and crypto, are watching closely for the data.
