Economic growth in the ordtak

Economic growth in the autumn and winter is likely to be soft, ... and there is going to be heightened pressure on companies to try to pass through some of their higher costs into finished goods prices.

Energy prices were rising before Katrina hit, and while those costs didn't make their way through to finished goods in August, we have to expect higher core inflation in coming months. Firms are saying that they've absorbed so much already that they have to pass on these costs.

Over the past year, core intermediate goods inflation has been nearly 5 percentage points higher than core finished goods inflation. This is one of the largest gaps ever, and reinforces our expectation that a part of this early-stage inflation should feed through into finished goods prices in the coming months.

Bill Dudley (1919-)

The big question now is how much companies will be able to raise prices for finished products to offset the hit to profits from higher unit labor costs.

Higher oil prices stifle economic growth. There becomes a situation where manufacturers will have to charge consumers more for the increased cost of fuel. The economic recovery right now is very tentative and it can't be hit with higher oil prices.

As growth stays sluggish and prices rise, companies are more hard-pressed to keep profits from declining. So they say, 'Sorry, we have to charge more'. They can't get away with that on discretionary stuff because people will hold off, but people will be stuck paying higher prices for need-type goods and services. It becomes a circular thing.

The Bank of England will not be happy to see that manufacturers output prices rose at an increased rate in December, as it suggests that they could be stepping up their efforts to pass on their higher input costs despite intense domestic and international competition and relatively soft demand.

Higher prices for final manufactured goods were also more widespread this month, suggesting that higher costs have been passed on to customers.

Oil and commodities will probably keep increasing producer prices at the current pace. Many companies are still struggling to pass on higher manufacturing costs to consumers as they haven't regained pricing power.

Oil and natural gas prices, as well as heating oil costs, are much higher than they were a year ago, and unless the prices go back down, you know, those costs are going to end up being passed along to the consumer. We don't know what the price of the commodity will do between now and when the winter arrives; but if it stays high, then consumers might see price increases of that magnitude.

Policy-makers have been worried that rising energy costs could lead to higher prices for other things including higher wages and compensation, but it looks like companies are keeping their employment costs in check.

The fact that both P.& G. and Colgate were able to pass on the higher costs to consumers without hurting sales is encouraging. These companies have been reshaping their portfolios toward higher-margin categories to drive profits. Over all, both the companies have done a decent job at new product introductions.

Keith Patriquin

Companies are finding it difficult to pass on their higher input costs so they're looking at labor costs instead.

The Fed is concerned that higher energy costs may give an adverse impact on growth rather than posing a risk to faster inflation. Producer prices also showed latent inflationary pressure eased.

The trucking industry is very competitive, so driving up the costs of hiring drivers has not really translated that much to price pressure for finished goods.
