UK PPI output prices fall to 3.1% YoY, below forecast

UK PPI input prices fall to 4.9% YoY, beat forecast sharply

UK producer input prices rose 4.9% year-over-year, significantly undershooting the 6.5% forecast and declining from 7.3% previously. This deflationary trend supports BoE rate-cut expectations and weakens GBP as market odds shift toward easier monetary policy, contrasting with sticky downstream inflation pressures.
