Wholesale inflation rises 2.2% in September, biggest year-over-year gain since April_我的网站
A | WASHINGTON -- U.S. wholesale prices rose last month at the fastest pace since April, suggesting that inflationary pressures remain despite a year and a half of higher interest rates.The Labor Department reported Wednesday that its producer price index — which measures inflation before it hits consumers — climbed 2.2% from a year earlier. That was up from a 2% uptick in August.On a month-to-month basis, producer prices rose 0.5% from August to September, down from 0.7% from July to August.Excluding volatile food and energy prices, so-called core inflation rose 2.7% in September from a year earlier and 0.3% from August. The Federal Reserve and many outside economists pay particular attention to core prices as a good signal of where inflation might be headed.Wholesale prices have been rising more slowly than consumer prices, raising hopes that inflation may continue to ease as producer costs make their way to the consumer. But Wednesday's numbers, driven by an uptick in the price of goods, came in higher last month than economists had expected. Wholesale energy prices surged 3.3% from August to September, and food prices rose 0.9% after tumbling 0.5% from July to August.Last year, inflation reached highs not seen in four decades, prompting the Fed to raise interest rates aggressively. The central bank has boosted its benchmark rate 11 times since March 2022. Those higher borrowing costs have helped cool inflation and slow a still-solid job market.There are growing expectations that the Fed may decide to leave interest rates alone for the rest of the year. On Monday, two Fed officials suggested that the central bank may leave its key rate unchanged at its next meeting in three weeks, helping touch off a rally in bonds and stocks.Rubeela Farooqi, chief U.S. economist at High Frequency Economics, said last month’s higher producer prices “likely do not change the outlook for Fed policy. Our baseline remains that rates are at a peak. For the Fed, geopolitical developments will be an additional risk factor which will likely keep policymakers proceeding cautiously going forward.″In the meantime, the economy has remained sturdier than expected. Optimism is rising that the Fed may pull off a ''soft landing'' — raising rates just enough to tame inflation without tipping the economy into a deep recession.On Thursday, the Labor Department will issue its closely watched consumer price index for September. Last month, the department reported that compared with 12 months earlier, core consumer prices in August rose at the smallest pace in nearly two years.。 The highly-anticipated teaser for Border 2 has been released by the makers. The teaser came with spinechilling moments that define patriotism and nationalistic fervour. Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh and Ahan Shetty play soldiers who are trying to navigate through the 1971 Indo-Pak war. In one instance, Sunny's character says, "Tum jahan se bhi ghusne ki koshish karoge, zameen se, aasmaan se, samundar se-saamne ek Hindustani fauji khada paoge..." (Wherever you try to enter from, be it the land, the sky or the sea, there would be one Indian soldier standing in front of you.) In another instance, Sunny's character says, "Aawaz kahan tak jaani chahiye?" to which the other soldiers scream, "Lahore tak!" The same sets the tone for the film as it delves into the bravery of the soldiers who fought in the gruesome war.The teaser was launched at an event in Mumbai. It was attended by Sunny Deol, who made his first public appearance after father Dharmendra's death. The other actors, including Varun Dhawan and Ahan Shetty joined him on stage. The trio was also joined by director Anurag Singh and producers Bhushan Kumar and Nidhi Dutta.Sunny Deol opened up about working in Border 2 and reliving the memories of the 1997 movie Border. He shared about the scenes being hard-hitting and how wearing the soldier's uniform is uplifting and comes with responsibility. Varun Dhawan and Ahan Shetty shared about working with Sunny Deol. While Varun Dhawan opened up about the "Lahore Tak" dialogue and how it became a crucial part of the teaser, Ahan Shetty quipped about the advice his father Suniel Shetty gave him before he started working on the film. Border 2 also stars Medha Rana, Mona Singh, Anya Singh and Sonam Bajwa in leading roles. It is scheduled to release on January 23, 2026, right before Republic Day.Also Read: Ahan Shetty Shines in Powerful New Poster of Border 2。
