The IPCA-15

October registered a rate of 0.21%, below the September rate (0.35%). In the year to date, inflation was 3.96%, while in 12 months, it reached 5.05%. Transport led the increases, with 0.78%, followed by Health and personal care (0.28%) and Housing (0.26%). On the other hand, Food and beverages continued to fall (-0.31%). Communication fell 0.29%, while Personal Expenses rose 0.31%.

Despite having risen 0.21% in the month, this number shows that inflation here in Brazil could return to within the target of 3.5% per year. So this is great news for consumers and investors.
