Australian Producer Price Indexes Show 0.8% Quarterly Rise in Final Demand

Final demand in Australia rose 0.8% in the December 2025 quarter and 3.5% annually. Growth was driven by Services and Construction sectors, with property operators reporting a 0.9% increase due to high demand and rising rents. Residential building construction grew 1.3% as demand for housing continued to build. Short-term accommodation prices rose amid seasonal demand and major sporting events. No significant negative price movements offset the quarterly increases. The rise reflects sustained demand for long-term rental properties and gradual growth in house construction. Final demand excludes exports and measures prices of goods and services as they leave or enter the production process.
