German producer prices rose in December but at slower pace

BERLIN (Reuters) -German producer prices rose in December at a slower rate than the previous month as inflation eases in Europes largest economy due in part to lower energy prices, data showed on Friday.

柏林（路透社）——周五公布的数据显示，德国 12 月生产者价格涨幅低于上月，原因是欧洲最大经济体的通胀有所缓解，部分原因是能源价格下跌。

Producer prices of industrial products rose 21.6% on the same month last year, the federal statistics office reported, compared with analysts expectations for the rate to ease to 20.8% from 28.2% in November.

联邦统计局报告称，去年同月工业产品生产者价格上涨了 21.6%，而分析师预期的涨幅将从 11 月份的 28.2% 降至 20.8%。

Compared with the previous month, prices fell 0.4%, less than the consensus for a drop of 1.2%. This was the third consecutive monthly fall, as energy prices ease.

与上月相比，价格下跌 0.4%，低于市场普遍预期的下跌 1.2%。随着能源价格放缓，这是连续第三个月下跌。

“The good news is that upward momentum is clearly easing at this point,” LBBW bank senior economist Jens-Oliver Niklasch said.

lbbw 银行高级经济学家 jens-oliver niklasch 表示：“好消息是目前上涨势头明显减弱。”

The month-on-month decline in December was driven by a 1.0% dip in energy costs, due to easing prices for natural gas and mineral oil products. In November, energy prices had fallen by 9.6% compared with October.

由于天然气和矿物油产品价格下降，能源成本下降 1.0%，导致 12 月环比下降。与 10 月份相比，11 月份能源价格下降了 9.6%。

Germanys producer price index peaked at 45.8% year-on-year in August and September. There has been a downward trend since then.

德国生产者物价指数在 8 月和 9 月同比达到 45.8% 的峰值。从那时起就出现了下降趋势。

“Todays figures strengthen hopes that the core inflation rate for consumer prices will also reach its high point in the coming months,” said Ralph Solveen, head of economic research at Commerzbank.

德国商业银行经济研究主管拉尔夫索尔文表示：“今天的数据增强了消费者价格核心通胀率也将在未来几个月达到高点的希望。”

The German government is expected to revise down its inflation forecast for 2023 later this month from 7% to 6%, a source told Reuters citing its draft annual economic report.

一位消息人士援引其年度经济报告草案告诉路透社，预计德国政府将在本月晚些时候将 2023 年的通胀预期从 7% 下调至 6%。

Over the whole of 2022, producer prices for industrial products increased by 32.9% compared to 2021.

2022年全年，工业品出厂价格比2021年上涨32.9%。

“This was the highest price increase since the start of the survey in 1949,” the office said.

“这是自 1949 年开始调查以来的最高价格涨幅，”该办公室表示。

The statistics office offers more details on producer prices on its website.
