Data from the Central Bank of Venezuela on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) at the end of April places the indicator above 10 %, representing a slight decrease in inflation compared to previous months.

The regulatory body placed the year-on-year inflation rate (April 2025-April 2026) at 612 %, “which also signifies a slowdown compared to the previous month when it reached 650 %.” Data for January shows an average price increase of 32.6 %, followed by 14.6 % in February and 13.1 % in March.

The decline in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in April is attributed to market interventions aimed at stabilizing the exchange rate.

Thanks to auction mechanisms, it is expected that “approximately $1.3 billion per week will enter the market to continue stabilizing the devaluation of the bolivar and further slowing the rise in prices, according to unofficial sources.”

In Latin America, Ecuador maintains the lowest inflation rate in the region. During the month of July, annual inflation stood at 0.72 %, which, according to the National Institute of Statistics and Censuses (INEC), represents a slowdown compared to 1.57 % in the same month in 2024.

According to the local agency, this “represents an annual decrease of 1.32 percentage points.” However, it is important to clarify that “when inflation falls, it is usually interpreted as a sign of stability; the drastic drop in price levels over the last year reflects weak demand and possible economic stagnation.”

Domestically, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) grew only 0.11 percentage points monthly between June and July; a sign of a lack of dynamism in economic activity, reinforced by a drastic drop in prices in “key sectors.”

Service prices continue to rise, as do products in the Basic Family Basket, which comprises 75 items nationwide. In this regard, a comparison is made between the price of the basic basket in July, which was $813.82, and the monthly family salary for the same period, which was $877.33, “which means there is a surplus of $63.51.”

US inflation slowed significantly in March, demonstrating the strength and resilience of the economy despite the trade tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump.

Economists have already warned that last Thursday’s CPI report “could very well mark the lowest point in inflation this year, as Trump’s massive and sweeping tariffs disrupt the global order and make imports and, likely, final goods significantly more expensive for consumers.”

In March, prices fell 0.1 % compared to the previous month; The first drop in these indicators since 2020.

“The core CPI, which excludes food and energy, rose just 0.1 % in the month, leaving a rate of 2.8 % for the 12 months ending in March and a sharp slowdown from the 3.1 % recorded in February.”

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) of Colombia stood at 12.22 % year-on-year in October, which represents an increase of more than 0.7 points compared to the previous month, when it reached 11.4 % year-on-year, according to the National Administrative Department of Statistics (DANE).

In this way, inflation in Colombia once again exceeds a new record so far this century, since you have to go back to 1999 to find figures as high as those recorded since July of this year, when they exceeded two digits of CPI.

This increase is mainly due to the monthly variation in the price of food and non-alcoholic beverages, as well as in transportation, which presented variations of 1.1 % and 1.09 %, respectively, both being the largest increases monthly.

So far this year, accumulated inflation has already exceeded 10.8 %, this figure being higher than that registered a year ago in the same period, which stood at 4.34 %.
