Inflation It accelerated again in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (CABA). In Juneexceeded 2% driven by increases in rentals, transport, food and prepaid.
The Buenos Aires Statistics Institute reported that last month the city’s consumer price index (IPCBA) reached 2.1%. Thus, he failed to sustain the considerable deceleration experienced in May, when he had dropped to 1.6%.
In this way, Buenos Aires inflation accumulated 15.3% in the first semester and 44.5% year -on -year.
The IPCBA is followed carefully as the first thermometer prior to the publication of the INDEC National IPCwhich this time will be disseminated next Monday 14. The consultants already discounted a rebound from inflation in June (In May, INDEC measured 1.5%) to a level close to 2% and, beyond using different baskets, The Buenos Aires index seems to come to ratify it.
The report of the Buenos Aires statistical body reflects a acceleration both in the prices of goods and in those of services. The former went from 0.8% in May to 1.4% in June and the latter accelerated from 2% to 2.6%.
The main containment barrier came from prices seasonalwhich in June rose only 1.2% in CABA, almost a point below the general index. While there was a considerable increase in aerial passages and tour packages, that was compensated by the Nominal low in vegetables, tubers and legumesof 1.4%.
Instead, the regulated prices climb 2.4% driven by increases in the quotas of the Prepaids and in the values of the ticket collective urban. They were followed in importance, adjustments in the tariffs of the private schools (initial, primary and secondary level) and in the Light rates.
