The PPI and the inflation outlook
from Die ekonomie minuut · host Waldo Krugell
Statistics South Africa yesterday announced June's producer price inflation rate and it rose from 14.7% in May to 16.2%. Part of these previous months' producer price inflation will have to be passed on to consumers. The Reserve Bank has also identified a number of factors that can increase inflation. The result of all this is that consumer price inflation is likely to rise before it starts to fall. But there is some hope in the form of a drop in the fuel price and a slightly stronger rand. * The Economics Minute is supported by the NWU Business School.
