FX.co ★ U.S. Export Prices Hold Steady in January, Matching December’s 0.6% Gain

The U.S. Export Price Index recorded a month-over-month increase of 0.6% in January 2026, unchanged from the revised 0.6% rise seen in December 2025. The data, updated on 5 March 2026, indicate that export prices are advancing at a stable pace at the start of the year.

On a month-over-month basis, the “actual” January reading compares the change in prices from January to December, while the “previous” figure reflected December’s change relative to November. The identical 0.6% readings for both months suggest that pricing pressures on U.S. exports have neither accelerated nor eased heading into 2026, signaling a steady cost environment for U.S. goods sold abroad.
