Why it matters
The monthly change is the freshest reading of price pressure: the yearly rate is the sum of the last twelve monthly changes, so today's monthly figure tells you where the yearly rate is heading.
How it is calculated
INDEC prices a fixed basket of goods and services across the country and compares the index with the previous period. Seasonal patterns (sales, holidays) make raw monthly figures jumpy; some countries also publish seasonally adjusted numbers.
Monthly inflation = index(this month) ÷ index(last month) − 1
Annualised ≈ (1 + monthly)¹² − 1What changes mean
- Compare with the same month in earlier years: January and September often have seasonal jumps.
- 0.2% a month is about the 2% a year most central banks aim for.
Higher than expected: A higher figure than expected makes the Banco Central de la República Argentina more likely to keep rates high or raise them: it tends to support the Argentine peso and push bond yields up, and is often a weight on stocks.
Lower than expected: A lower figure than expected gives the Banco Central de la República Argentina room to cut or hold rates lower: the Argentine peso tends to soften and bond yields to fall.
A short history
Monthly price indexes date from the early 20th century; many countries began publishing them during or after the First World War to adjust wages to the cost of living.
