The monthly rate of the US import price index in August, the import price index, may have an impact on future inflation. If manufacturers are unable to digest the rising prices of imported goods, it will eventually push up the ex-factory prices of products and spread to the final consumer sector, pushing up inflation. However, due to the long process from import prices to the final consumer prices, the impact on the market is relatively small.

Industrial output is measured in terms of output rather than dollar-denominated output, so it is not distorted by inflation and is considered to be a more accurate indicator of US industry. The rise in the data indicates that economic expansion is good for the dollar, and vice versa.
