The Spanish Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) dropped to 2.9% in July 2024, marking a significant decline from the previous month’s rate of 3.6%, according to new data released on 13 August 2024. This indicator, which provides a comparative measure of consumer price inflation across EU member states, showcases a slowing trend in the annual price increase.The HICP’s year-over-year assessment reveals that the reduction is the result of a comparison between the monthly data for July 2023 and July 2024. The previous indicator’s value of 3.6% also reflected a similar year-over-year comparison, but for June. The latest figures suggest that inflationary pressures in Spain are easing, which could bring some relief to households and policymakers alike as they navigate the post-pandemic economic landscape.This downtrend in the HICP might be indicative of broader economic adjustments and supply chain stabilizations, which have been influencing price dynamics. Analysts will be closely monitoring forthcoming data to gauge whether this slowdown in consumer prices continues, potentially affecting monetary policy decisions in the Eurozone.The material has been provided by InstaForex Company – www.instaforex.com
