Inflação global pode estar a infletir
November 28, 2022 - Os principais indicadores económicos sugerem que a inflação começa a descer, mas as quebras nas cadeias de abastecimento pela pandemia e tensões geopolíticas podem manter os custos no consumidor voláteis.
Producer price inflation, the change in the price of goods bought and sold by manufacturers, peaked between March and August this year, leading to a fall in inflation expectations.
However, there are warning signs that headline consumer inflation could still be sensitive to fluctuating costs of energy – with Russia likely to make further export cuts in retaliation for sanctions which come into effect in December and the threat of price caps later – and global supply chains which are only just recovering after the pandemic.
