Alphacast High Frequency CPI - June 8st to 14th 2026
Alphacast High Frequency CPI: Inflation was 0.41% WoW
Weekly inflation moderated in the second week of June. Consumer prices rose 0.41% WoW, down from 0.68% in the previous week, suggesting a slower weekly pace after the regulated-price-driven increase recorded at the start of the month. On a running basis, inflation eased to 2.7% MoM, while the annual rate remained broadly stable at around 34% YoY.
Component dynamics were mixed in the second week of June, with core and seasonal prices firming slightly, while regulated prices decelerated sharply. Regulated prices rose 0.33% WoW, down from 1.44% in the previous week, as the impact of scheduled increases at the beginning of the month faded. In contrast, core inflation increased to 0.42% WoW, from 0.38%, while seasonal prices rose to 0.45% WoW, from 0.36% previously. Overall, the sharp slowdown in regulated prices more than offset the mild acceleration in core and seasonal components, pulling headline inflation lower in the second week of June.
