It marks the lowest monthly print since April 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The annual producer inflation rate eased to 5.5%, from a downwardly revised 6.0%, versus the 6.2% consensus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Core PPI, which strips out food and energy, 0.2% on the month against the 0.4% expected, with the annual core rate eased from 4.9% to 4.7%. Economists had penciled in a pickup to 5.2%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cooling-than-expected print lands a day after June consumer inflation fell 0.4% month over month, the biggest monthly decline since April 2020, dragging annual CPI down to 3.5% from 4.2% as energy prices dropped 5.7%, with core CPI flat on the month and up 2.6% year over year, a report that pushed July hold probabilities to over 90%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-where-producer-inflation-fell-in-june-and-where-it-didn-t\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where Producer Inflation Fell In June \u2014 And Where It Didn\u2019t<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The entire June decline sits in goods. The index for final demand goods fell 1.4%, the largest monthly decrease since a 1.9% drop in July 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Energy did the work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Final demand energy prices dropped 6.4%, with gasoline down 12.0%, a move that accounts for nearly two-thirds of the goods decline on its own. Diesel fuel, jet fuel, crude petroleum and thermoplastic resins all fell alongside it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is the Hormuz premium unwinding at the wholesale level. Crude prices spent the spring repricing the war risk premium into every input cost in the economy. June is the first month the pipeline ran in reverse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Food prices offered a second leg down, with the final demand foods index off 0.6% and fresh vegetables leading the decline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Strip out both and the picture inverts. Prices for final demand goods less foods and energy rose 0.2%, with plastic products up 1.6% and residential electric power higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Services never cooled at all. The index for final demand services rose 0.2% in June after falling 0.1% in May, with more than 60% of the advance traced to trade margins, which climbed 0.4%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-how-markets-reacted\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Markets Reacted<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Street treated the print as confirmation of a cooler-than-expected consumer inflation, bolstering bets on rates to remain on hold this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the July 29 meeting, CME FedWatch pricing puts an 87.71% probability on the Fed holding the target range at 3.50%\u20133.75%<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">S&amp;P 500 futures rose 0.17% to 7,572.40 in the minutes after the release, with Nasdaq 100 futures up 0.23% to 29,746.12 and Dow futures up 0.19% to 52,707.15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Small caps led. Russell 2000 futures gained 0.36% to 2,975.40, the sharpest reaction across the four major benchmarks \u2014 the rate-sensitive corner of the market taking the print hardest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rates market moved the most. The two-year Treasury yield \u2013 the most sensitive to Federal Reserve\u2019s monetary policy \u2013 dropped 5 basis points to 4.17%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dollar eased 0.1% to 100.588 on the U.S. Dollar Index.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gold rose 0.46% to $4,058.78 an ounce, the clearest expression of a market pricing a lower real rate path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Crude barely moved. WTI traded up 0.10% at $79.73 a barrel \u2014 the commodity that caused the disinflation registering none of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Still, the market is not reading two consecutive cool inflation reports as the start of an easing cycle. It is reading them as a breathing window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By the Sept. 16 meeting, the modal outcome is no longer a hold. Traders assign 64.15% to the 3.75%\u20134.00% range, compared with 35.85% for an unchanged 3.50%\u20133.75%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By Oct. 28, that hardens to 86.29%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By the Dec. 9 meeting, one hike is fully priced, and by the Jan. 27, 2027, meeting, the probability of a second hike rises to 39.29%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"584\"
