The Wholesale Price Index (WPI) YoY measures the change in the price of goods sold and traded in bulk by wholesale businesses over a one-year period. It serves as an early warning signal for future consumer price inflation, as wholesale price changes are typically passed on to retailers and then to consumers. This indicator is particularly significant in economies with large manufacturing and distribution sectors.
Calculated by comparing the current wholesale price index for a basket of commodities and manufactured goods to the index level from the same month of the previous year.
