(ANSA) - ROME, SEPTEMBER 30 - Negative inflation for the fifth consecutive month in September.

According to the preliminary estimates of Istat, in the month the national index of consumer prices for the whole community (Nic), before tobacco, recorded a decrease of 0.5% on an annual basis (as in August).

Monthly subase the decline is 0.6%.


    Negative inflation, explains Istat, continues to be mainly due to the decreases, albeit less marked than in the previous month, in the prices of regulated energy goods (from -13.7% to -13.6%), of non-regulated ones (from -8.6% to -8.2%) and the prices of transport services (from -2.3% to -1.6%).


    Instead, the prices of the so-called shopping cart, which includes the prices of food goods, for home and personal care, "accelerate" in September, going from + 0.9% to + 1.2%. Those of high-frequency purchasing products in turn recorded a zero trend variation of -0.2%.


   The inflation acquired for 2020 is equal to -0.2% for the general index. (HANDLE).
