WHOLESALE INFLATION CLIMBS 11% IN APRIL, REMAINING NEAR 40-YEAR HIGH

Prices of imported goods were unchanged month-over-month, down from March’s 2.6% surge, the biggest increase in 11 years. Export prices rose 0.6% in April, also down from a record 4.5% spike the previous month. Smaller gains in import and export prices would support the view that inflation has peaked.

The University of Michigan released its preliminary index of consumer sentiment for May, which came in at 59.1, falling from April’s final reading of 65.2. Sentiment has fallen 26% from a pandemic high of 88.3 in April 2021 as consumers worry about the rapid rise in prices for goods and services.
