The quarter-on-quarter change in the Producer Price Index (PPI) measures how much the prices of goods and services sold by New Zealand businesses at the wholesale level have changed in a given quarter compared to the previous quarter. This data, released quarterly by Statistics New Zealand, is crucial for assessing trends in business costs and inflationary pressures.
Quarter-on-quarter data helps understand fluctuations in business cost structures and pricing strategies. An increase in the PPI indicates rising business costs, which could lead to higher consumer prices. Conversely, a decrease in the PPI suggests falling business costs, which may signal deflationary risks.
This data is an important resource for policymakers to evaluate inflationary pressures and formulate appropriate monetary policies. Additionally, it serves as a critical source of information for businesses and investors to understand cost trends and develop economic forecasts.
