During September, consumer durables and personal goods increased by 0.58% month-over-month, accelerating from a rise of 0.45% in August. The uptick was led by a 0.76% jump in both personal care and communication goods. OpenBrand\u2019s CPI<\/a> indicator has now risen for 10 consecutive months.<\/p>\n

End of De Minimis Exemption Lifts Small Goods Prices<\/p>\n

In August, the U.S. ended the \u201cde minimis\u201d exemption, which enabled duty-free entry for goods valued under $800. That likely led to higher prices for smaller goods.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, items excluded from de minimis treatment due to their higher costs, like appliances, saw a price deceleration in September, showing \u201ca possible sign that the impacts of tariffs on these product groups may be starting to wane,\u201d said OpenBrand.<\/p>\n
