The Producer Price Index (PPI) released today shows the biggest drop in wholesale inflation since records began in 1947.  Most of the decline can be attributed to the 25%+ drop in gas prices.  However, the Core PPI ( which excludes food and gas ) increased more than expectations.  The year-over-year Core PPI shows the highest reading in nearly 20 years.  In general, deflation, not inflation, is of immediate concern.
