Import and exports prices from the US:

  • Prior import prices rose 0.4% (revised to +0.2%)
  • Export prices +0.1% m/m vs -0.2% exp
  • Prior export prices fell 0.1%
  • Import prices -10.5% y/y
  • Export prices -6.7% y/u

Surprising to see export prices rise despite the strong dollar. Service exports from the US have been strong and they likely have some pricing power.
