Inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index has remained below 5.5% annually since 1991.
The Producer Price Index (PPI), All Commodities, measures the change in the average selling prices of goods entering the market for the first time that are not sold directly to consumers.
The Producer Price Index tends to be a leading indicator of inflation.
The Consumer Price Index (CPI), commonly referred to as the inflation rate, is a measure of the average change in prices paid by consumers for a fixed market basket of goods and services.
The national PPI & CPI should be used when measuring inflation in Greater Phoenix. |
