The impact on the economy and expectations
These data reflect a trend toward inflationary deceleration in the wholesale segment, which could positively impact the stability of retail prices in the coming months. The lower rise in domestic products and the reduction of the impact of imported goods suggest that the economy could be entering a phase of greater predictability.
With these indicators, the government reinforces its strategy of controlling wholesale inflation and stabilizing the internal market, a key factor for improving the economic expectations of consumers and businesses.
