Model-driven outlook for key U.S. economic releases

Published: July 4, 2026 Model: MoneyChoice Forecast Engine — MCP macro forecasts Coverage: PPI, Retail Sales, CPI, Building Permits

Executive Summary

This week's data batch—all from the prior period—paints a mixed picture. Consumer and producer prices both crept up: CPI +0.48% month-over-month, PPI +3.19%. But industrial production and building permits are forecast to contract, −0.51% and −1.86% respectively. Advance retail sales eked out a +0.45% gain, suggesting consumers are still spending, even with inflation biting. No single day dominates the release calendar—everything dropped last week.
