It begins to mark a trend, barely perceptible, but that shows better data. In June, prices slowed down in Córdoba. Now, those who confirm these numbers is the Directorate of Statistics and Censuses of the Province, lhe inflation last month was the lowest so far this year and recorded 5.37%, a figure lower than that of last January.
Since 2023, the price indicators registered a constant escalation. In May, the worst month, it came close to 8 points. The index released this week by the Province shows a reduction of 2.61 percentage points between May and Junemainly linked to the slowdown in the rise in food prices, which was 5.12% last month.
Lighter data avoiding the trigger clause
As long as the indexes that the province reflects in the rise in prices do not exceed 50%, it prevents the trigger clause from being applied to the salaries of provincial employees.
Until a few months ago, the Córdoba Statistics Department published local data at the same time that INDEC released national data.
In recent months, it started doing it a day or two early, and now it’s nearly a week ahead of them.
