Consumer prices in the Czech Republic in July increased year-on-year by 1.7 percent. Inflation thus accelerated from June's 1.5 percent and the Czech Statistical Office thereby confirmed its preliminary estimate. Month-on-month, prices increased by 0.6 percent. zpravy.aktualne.cz ↗
The main factor in July's price growth was fuel, which according to available data increased year-on-year by 17 percent. Higher fuel prices contributed to the overall acceleration of inflation, while for some food products the trend was opposite. Butter was, according to published information, the cheapest in the last 16 years. e15.cz ↗
The data confirm that price growth remains moderate in the Czech Republic, but accelerated compared to the previous month. Year-on-year comparison shows an increase in the inflation rate of 0.2 percentage points, while month-on-month price growth reflects July's developments particularly in items related to transportation. ihned.cz ↗
Further development of inflation will depend primarily on energy prices, fuel prices, and food prices. July data also show that individual components of the consumer basket develop differently and the overall figure is the result of price increases for some items and price decreases for others. novinky.cz ↗
