Producer Price Index (PPI): Release Dates, Results & History
Producer Price Index (PPI) last printed 0.00% on Thu, Aug 13, 2026 against a 0.20% consensus forecast and a -0.30% prior, a -1.43 standard-deviation surprise. The next release is Thursday, September 10, 2026 at 8:30 AM ET. Captured live by Helious the moment it printed.
PPI is pipeline inflation: what producers are charging before it hits consumers. Desks care most about the components that feed directly into core PCE (portfolio management, healthcare, airfares), so PPI day is really about refining the PCE forecast. A hot PPI after a hot CPI compounds the repricing.

How it moves Treasuries
Hotter PPI is bearish Treasuries, though the standalone move is smaller than CPI's. The kicker comes when PCE-relevant components surprise. That shifts core PCE estimates and rates follow. See it scored live on the Helious desk,
