South Korean producer prices slowed after two consecutive months of gains
South Korea’s producer price index climbed 0.8% year-on-year in October, a slower growth rate than the 1.3% rise seen in the previous month.
On a monthly basis, producer prices declined 0.1%, the first time in three months that the PPI declined month-on-month. This decrease was due to a 5.5% decline in the prices of agricultural, forestry and marine products.
