It was all energy ordsprog

It was all energy prices, so I wouldn't make too much of the soft rise in the core (rate),

Ram Bhagavatula

While the rise in core prices is a bit uncomfortably high, this stand-alone report is not evidence that soaring energy prices are feeding into other prices.

The Labor Department also noted that for 2005 consumer prices overall rose by the largest rate in five years, partly because of spiraling interest rates and energy prices. The CPI was up by 3.4% for the 12 months ending in December. However, taking out core numbers from food and energy, the number was up only 2.2%.

So far, we haven't seen a major increase in core inflation, all we've seen is a sharp rise in energy prices. It seems logical that higher energy prices should start to feed through to higher inflation.

Core prices are going to continue to edge a little higher. The extreme increases in energy and commodity costs that we've had are going to seep through to the core. Core prices worry the Fed.

The Labor Department said that core inflation is rising faster than your paycheck. Through the first three months of this year overall inflation is up by 4.3%, last year the rate was 3.4%. Energy prices are up by 21.8% compared with 17.1% last year; core inflation, excluding food and energy, is up by 2.8% and March was the largest increase in all categories.

Despite the combination of somewhat slower growth of productivity in recent quarters, higher energy prices, and a decline in the exchange rate for the dollar, core measures of consumer prices have registered only modest increases,

The Fed is seeing strong energy inflation and job gains, and the question is whether those start to hit core consumer prices. To date, core inflation has been growing at a fairly tame rate. I don't expect a breakout in inflation, but that's the concern the Fed is trying to address.

Over the past six months, the core PPI is up at about a 0.5 per cent annual rate. There is no indication that higher energy prices have led to broad inflationary pressures.

It was a matter of time before the core rate started feeling the effects of increased energy and commodity prices, ... Maybe it's aberrational but maybe it's the start of something more significant.

As far as energy prices and core consumer prices, so far it is all smoke and no fire. Rising energy costs have not yet fed into the costs of other goods, despite many anecdotal signs that prices are being impacted.

From a big picture perspective, we are seeing a strong economy. We've seen high energy and commodity prices for a long time, and it hasn't had a substantial impact on the core rate of inflation.

Russell Lundeberg

I think the core trumps the energy prices. We know about energy prices and it's an accident about when they collect price data during the month.

High energy prices keep on working their way through the system. The risks remain skewed to a mild up-creep in core inflation during the months ahead, which will keep the Fed on track for another rate hike in March and likely in May.
