Denmark Producer Prices Decline At Softer Pace

Denmark’s producer prices declined in June largely driven by falling prices of mining and quarrying, figures from Statistics Denmark showed on Wednesday.

The producer price index fell 1.6 percent year-on-year in June, slower than the 5.6 percent decline in May.

The latest decline in the producer prices was largely due to a 25.5 percent decrease in mining and quarrying prices and a 17.7 percent fall in energy supply cost, the agency said.

Domestic market prices declined 3.8 percent annually in May, while foreign market prices rose 0.2 percent.

On a monthly basis, producer prices rose 3.4 percent in May.

Import prices decreased 2.8 percent yearly in May but rose 0.4 percent from a month ago.
