Producer Price Index (PPI) y/y reflects average changes in selling prices received by domestic producers of goods and services in the specified month compared to the same month of the previous year. The producer price index is considered as a leading indicator of consumer price inflation, which in turn can considerably affect the general inflation level. A higher than expected reading can affect the South Korean won quotes positively.
