Wholesale prices rose less than forecast in January as food and energy costs dropped, a sign inflation pressures may remain subdued. The producer price index rose 0.1% following a 0.1% decrease the prior month. Economists projected a 0.4% gain, according to the median estimate in a Bloomberg News survey. The core measure excluding volatile food and energy rose 0.4%,
more than projected, led by a surge in drug prices. (Bloomberg)
