Por qué importa

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.

Cómo se calcula

the national statistics office 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 − 1

Qué significan los cambios

  • 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.

Mayor de lo esperado: A higher figure than expected makes the central bank more likely to keep rates high or raise them: it tends to support the the local currency and push bond yields up, and is often a weight on stocks.

Menor de lo esperado: A lower figure than expected gives the central bank room to cut or hold rates lower: the the local currency tends to soften and bond yields to fall.

Una breve historia

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.
