SWEDEN: September Flash Inflation Due At 0700BST/0800CET; No Fireworks Expected
Oct-07 13:14
Swedish flash September inflation is due tomorrow at 0700BST/0800CET, but is not expected to be a major market mover. The Riksbank has signalled that it is likely to remain on hold going forward, after delivering a 25bp cut to 1.75% in September. The Board will require a much larger stock of data than one inflation report to consider deviating from this stance.
- Analysts expect CPIF ex-energy inflation to ease to 2.8% Y/Y (vs 2.9% in August). The Riksbank’s September MPR projects a larger deceleration to 2.7% Y/Y.
- A continued pullback in volatile components such as car rentals and package holidays are expected to contribute to disinflation in September. These components drove the inflation uptick over the summer, but the Riksbank assesses these dynamics to have been temporary.
- There is some uncertainty amongst analysts around the contribution from the clothing and footwear component in September (see image for more).
- CPIF ex-energy is expected to fall significantly below target next year due to the Government’s temporary food VAT tax cut. The Riksbank will look through associated swings in annual inflation rates. Indicators of price pressures (e.g. Economic Tendency Indicator expected prices) point to subdued underlying inflationary pressures ahead.
- As always, the flash release does not contain any details. The final report is due on October 15.
