Over 12 months, the index advanced 0.8%. This increase was influenced by a 0.5% surge in final demand services and a marginal 0.1% rise in final demand goods. Notably, 40% of the boost in final demand services was due to a 7.6% spike in portfolio management prices. The index for final demand services saw its largest uptick since August 2022, while the price of meats within final demand goods jumped by 5.0%. However, prices for diesel fuel dropped significantly by 7.1%.
