U.S. Economy: Producer Prices Fall, Trade Gap Narrows

Sept. 10 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. producer prices unexpectedly fell last month and the trade deficit narrowed in July, showing that inflation remains tame as economic growth accelerates.

 

Producer Prices

 

The costs of partially finished goods increased 1 percent after rising 0.8 percent. Excluding food and energy, prices of raw materials rose 4.5 percent after an 8.6 percent jump.

Inflation pressures at earlier stages of production processing continue to build,'' said David Resler, chief economist at Nomura Securities International in New York. However, the moderation in finished goods prices suggests continued problems in passing through rising costs.''

 

So far this year, producer prices are rising at a 3.8 percent annual rate compared with a 4.6 percent increase at the same time last year. Core prices are increasing at a 1.8 percent annual pace, compared with a 1 percent rate.

 

Passenger car prices dropped 1.2 percent in August, the largest since a 2.5 percent decrease in April 2003. Costs of light trucks also fell 2.5 percent, after no change in July.

The U.S. trade deficit through July totaled $339 billion, compared with $289.6 billion in the first seven months of 2003. The deficit for all of last year was a record $496.5 billion.

 

The value of U.S. oil imports fell in July to $10.6 billion from $11.7 billion the month before. The price of oil was $33.28 a barrel, down from $33.76 in June. The volume of oil fell to 318.8 million barrels from 346.5 million.

 

Trade Gaps

 

The trade gap with China grew to $14.9 billion, the widest ever. The shortfall is likely to intensify pressure for the country to stop pegging its currency to the dollar, which holds down the price of Chinese exports. The Bush administration, amid criticism from manufacturers, union members and rival Kerry, is urging China to move toward a flexible currency.

The trade deficit with Japan widened to $6.4 billion from $6.3 billion. The gap with Canada, the largest U.S. trading partner, narrowed to $6.1 billion from $6.6 billion.
