Over a year, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) should rise by 5.2% in May 2022, after +4.8% in the previous month, according to the provisional estimate made at the end of the month. This increase in inflation should result from the acceleration of energy, service, food and manufactured good prices.
Over one month, consumer prices should rise by 0.6%, after +0.4% in April. After the downturn the previous month, the prices of energy should rise linked with the rebound in petroleum product prices. The increase in food prices should be less sustained than in April. The prices of services and manufactured goods should slow down.
Year on year, the Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices should rise by 5.8%, after +5.4% in April. Over one month, it should increase by 0.7%, after +0.5% in the previous month.
