Buenos Aires inflation decelerates to 1.7% in August, 21.5% YTD

Buenos Aires CPI slowed to 1.7% in August from 2.9% in July, with YTD inflation at 21.5% and year-on-year at 33.3%. The deceleration suggests continued disinflation under Milei's stabilization program, though housing, food, health, and transport remain key drivers. This supports the government's anti-inflation narrative and may bolster market confidence in Argentina's economic trajectory.
