The Producer Price Index for Finished Goods advanced 0.3 percent in October, seasonally
adjusted, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. This increase followed a 0.6-percent
decline in September and a 1.7-percent rise in August. In October, at the earlier stages of
processing, prices received by manufacturers of intermediate goods moved up 0.3 percent and
the crude goods index increased 5.4 percent. On an unadjusted basis, from October 2008 to
October 2009, prices for finished goods fell 1.9 percent, the eleventh consecutive month of year-
over-year declines. (See table A.)
