Summary
Wholesale inflation is expected to stay high despite a slight decrease in July. Global energy prices and geopolitical uncertainty pose ongoing risks to price moderation. Manufacturing costs remain elevated, contributing to sustained wholesale price pressures. Economists predict inflation will remain high for much of the year. A gradual decline in wholesale inflation is anticipated with easing energy costs.
