Argentina Wholesale Inflation Slows to 2.1% Monthly in August

Argentina's wholesale price index rose 2.1% month-on-month in August, down from 0.8% in July, with year-on-year inflation at 29.8% and year-to-date at 19.1%. The slowdown suggests easing price pressures, though the government's earlier celebration of July's low print may be tempered by the higher August figure. This data point is key for assessing the trajectory of disinflation under the current stabilization program.
