On a yearly basis, producer prices jumped 9.5 percent - again missing forecasts for 9.6 percent following the upwardly revised 10.5 percent spike in the previous month (originally 10.2 percent).

Export prices were up 0.1 percent on month and 1.1 percent on year, the central bank said, while import prices fell 1.2 percent on month and climbed 7.2 percent on year.
