The latest Producer Price Index report, released Tuesday morning by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, showed the PPI rose 0.5 percent in April.<\/span><\/p>\n

Softwood lumber showed a big surge from March to April, up 6.2 percent on a seasonally adjusted month-to-month basis. Still, softwood lumber is still down 4.3 percent for the year, unadjusted.<\/p>\n

On the same annual basis, bolts, nuts and screws showed the biggest increase, up 9.4 percent.<\/p>\n

Here are the numbers across 10 key, industry commodities:<\/p>\n

According to analysis from Associated Builders and Contractors, a Washington, D.C.-based trade group, overall construction input prices are 2.3% higher than a year ago, while nonresidential construction input prices are 2.2% higher.<\/p>\n

\u201cConstruction input prices jumped half a percentage point higher in April and have increased 3.5% over the first four months of the year,\u201d said ABC Chief Economist Anirban Basu. \u201cWhile iron, steel, asphalt and gypsum product prices fell in April, oil and copper prices surged, driving the monthly increase. Rising input prices will put pressure on profits at a time when nearly 1 in 4 contractors expect their margins to contract over the next two quarters, according to ABC's Construction Confidence Index.<\/p>\n

\u201cPerhaps more importantly for contractors, the overall Producer Price Index reading for final demand goods and services increased 0.5% in April,\u201d said Basu. \u201cThis is yet another sign that inflation is accelerating and suggests that interest rates are set to stay higher for longer.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
