The Consumer Price Index (CPI) reached 4.6% last month in Argentina for a year-on-year 271.5%, according to a National Institute of Statistics and Census (Indec) survey released Friday. These figures also yielded a 79.8% increase in the first semester of 2024.

Argentine President Javier Milei admitted that his country's process of curbing inflation would be making a pause from the 4.2% the National Institute of Statistics and Census (Indec) announced for May this year. In addition to a rebound in the decline, there will be no zero deficit, the Libertarian leader also admitted.
