2018- n° 290In October 2018, consumer prices increased by 2.2% year on year Consumer price index - provisional results - October 2018
Over a year, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) should rise by 2.2% in October 2018, as in September, according to the provisional estimate made at the end of the month. The stability in inflation should come from an acceleration in energy prices and in services prices, offset by a larger drop in those of manufactured products and a slowdown in fresh food prices.
Over a year, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) should rise by 2.2% in October 2018, as in September, according to the provisional estimate made at the end of the month. The stability in inflation should come from an acceleration in energy prices and in services prices, offset by a larger drop in those of manufactured products and a slowdown in fresh food prices.
Over one month, consumer prices should recover barely: +0.1% after −0.2% in September. Energy prices should be more dynamic than in the previous month. Those of manufactured products should be stable over one month. Services prices should drop markedly less than in the previous month. Lastly, food prices should edge down in the wake of those in fresh food prices.
Year on year, the Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices should rise by 2.5%, as in September. Over one month, it should rebound to +0.1% after a −0.2% downturn in the previous month.

The indices published here are based on a limited set of price observations and from estimates of some rates of change for fares which are not yet available. The complete results will be published on 14 November 2018.
