Germany’s wholesale prices increased 5.9% year-on-year in May 2026, easing from a 6.3% rise in April, which had marked the strongest annual increase since February 2023. Despite the slowdown, wholesale inflation extended its upward trend for an 18th consecutive month, largely reflecting the impact of Middle East hostilities on commodity markets. Prices continued to surge for petroleum products (30.5%) and non-ferrous ores, metals, and related semi-finished products (36.1%). Further increases were seen in chemical products (13.3%), flowers and plants (8.5%), and iron, steel, and semi-finished products (6.7%). Meanwhile, prices fell for coffee, tea, cocoa, and spices (-10.7%), live animals (-10.1%), and milk, dairy products, eggs, edible oils, and fats (-8.1%). On a monthly basis, wholesale prices dropped 0.6%, reversing April’s 2.0% increase and marking the first monthly decline since December, compared with market expectations for a 0.8% rise.
