Raw Materials Prices MoM measures the month-over-month change in the prices paid by manufacturers for essential raw materials and intermediate goods. This indicator is a critical component of the Producer Price Index (PPI) and serves as an early warning sign for consumer inflation. When raw material costs rise, manufacturers often pass these costs on to consumers, leading to higher CPI readings later. It reflects global commodity price trends and supply chain pressures.
The index is calculated by comparing the current month's prices of a basket of raw materials (such as metals, energy, and chemicals) to the previous month's prices. It is usually expressed as a percentage change.
