Deutsche Bank forecasts softer headline CPI, but core inflation to pick up
- Deutsche Bank economists expect U.S. consumer price growth to slow in January, with headline CPI rising 0.22% month-over-month, down from 0.4% in December.
- However, they anticipate core CPI, which excludes food and energy, to accelerate to 0.28% from 0.2% in the previous month, signaling persistent underlying inflation pressures.
- Meanwhile, the Producer Price Index (PPI) report, set for release on Thursday, is expected to show monthly price growth holding steady at 0.2%, according to the bank’s forecast.
