WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) - Core inflation for wholesale goods in the United States increased at the fastest rate in six years in January, the Labor Department reported Friday.
The overall producer price index increased 0.3 percent as expected. The core PPI, which excludes food and energy prices, rose 0.8 percent compared with a 0.2 percent increase expected.
Tobacco prices rose 3.4 percent. Excluding tobacco, the core rate increased 0.7 percent.
Capital goods prices rose 0.6 percent.
Energy prices fell 1 percent while food prices dropped 0.2 percent.
In the past 12 months, the PPI is up 4.2 percent. The core PPI is up 2.7 percent, the biggest year-over-year gain in nine years.
December's PPI had been revised earlier this week on annual seasonal adjustment changes. The PPI fell 0.3 percent in December, compared with an earlier estimate of a 0.7 percent decline. The core PPI rose 0.2 percent in December.
Inflation at the wholesale level has been rising mostly on higher energy costs. Capital goods prices, which had fallen for years, have also been rising and are up 2.8 percent year-on-year.
Heavy truck prices rose 1.6 percent in January, while light truck prices increased 0.9 percent.
Prices of consumer goods excluding food and energy increased 0.9 percent in January,
Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan testified earlier this week that the Fed believes inflation is well contained. Despite higher prices for industrial materials and other inputs, the increases have not been fully passed on to consumers.
Prices accelerated further back in the production pipeline.
Intermediate goods prices rose 0.4 percent in January, with core intermediate goods prices up 0.8 percent. The core rate is up 8.5 percent in the past 12 months, the fastest increase in more than 23 years.
Fed policymakers consider the core intermediate PPI to be a key metric of inflationary pressures.
Prices of crude materials fell 2 percent in January and are up 10.8 percent in the past year, the slowest year-over-year gain since March 2004.
