26 August 2026, 09:42 Sweden: Producer Inflation at 3-Month Low.
Producer prices in Sweden increased 6.4% year-on-year in July 2026, slowing from 7.4% in June and marking the fifth consecutive monthly rise. It was the softest increase since April, due to softer rises in energy prices (26.0% vs 37.7% in June). Meanwhile, prices for capital goods rose at a slightly faster pace (1.6% vs 1.5%), while the decline in consumer goods prices eased (-1.6% vs -1.8%). Excluding energy-related products, producer prices rose by 3.5%, accelerating from a 3.3% gain in the previous month. Domestic supply prices rose by 7.6%, while import prices advanced by 8.6%. On a monthly basis, producer prices edged up by 0.1% in July, the same pace as in June. In the domestic market, prices dropped by 1.1%. “It was mainly lower prices on trade services of electricity that contributed to the negative monthly rate of change in the domestic market,” said Chatrine Lundbeck, statistician at Statistics Sweden.
