It's a temporal downturn until energy and comm prices will sharply rise

If I'm remembering correctly, it wasn't that long ago that producer prices were rising faster than consumer prices.

Is this a matter of correcting from a peak or is it a real downturn?

I'm not in the EU, I see this as a net benefit - and hope this will happen in the U.S. too. 

It's hard to buy anything now a days with a dollar.

Producer prices in the Eurozone fell again in May, dropping by 0.2% from the previous month, contrary to economists' expectations of a 0.1% increase, according to Eurostat. Annually, prices were down 4.2%, exceeding the forecasted 4.0% decline.

Across the entire EU, producer prices decreased by 0.3% month-over-month and by 4.0% year-over-year. These prices often indicate future consumer price trends as businesses typically pass on their costs to customers.
