	US Consumer Price Index and Inflation
		An index of 110, for example, means there has been a 10-percent increase in price since the reference period; similarly an index of 90 means a 10-percent decrease.
		Movements of the index from one date to another can be expressed as changes in index points (simply, the difference between index levels), but it is more useful to express the movements as percent changes.
		This is because index points are affected by the level of the index in relation to its reference period, while percent changes are not.

		The Producer Price Index is a family of indexes that measures the average change over time in the selling prices received by domestic producers of goods and services.
		Because food and energy prices tend to be very volatile, they can cause large increases and decreases from month to month which have very little to do with the general state of the economy, though sustained increases in prices can certainly act as a drag on the rest of the economy.

	Understanding Economic Data: Producer Price Index [Fool.com] September 19, 2006
		Price changes are incorporated into the overall index according to industry; various industries are assigned different weights in the index that roughly correspond to the relative value of products in that industry.
		For example, if the value of all shipments of a particular commodity is double the value of shipments of a different commodity, then price changes in the first commodity will have roughly twice the impact on the overall index that price changes in the second commodity have.
		Whether consumer prices follow producer prices depends on the ability of retailers to pass on additional costs to consumers; if consumer demand for a product were to decrease substantially if retail prices were to rise, then a retailer may absorb higher costs rather than increasing prices to compensate.

	RateEmpire.com - PPI: Producer Price Index
		Goods prices at the crude and intermediate stages of production often provide an indication of coming (dis)inflationary pressures, but the closer you get to crude goods, the more that these prices track commodity prices which are already available in traded indexes such as the CRB (Commodity Research Bureau).
		Food and energy prices tend to be quite volatile and obscure trends in the underlying inflation rate.
		The index is not revised on a monthly basis, but annual revisions to seasonal adjustment factors can produce small adjustments to past releases.
