NEA lidera inflação de março com alta mensal de 4,1%

O Nordeste argentino (NEA) registrou uma inflação de 4,1% em março, a maior do país segundo dados do INDEC, superando o índice nacional de 3,4%. A região acumula 11,5% neste ano, impulsionada por alimentos, serviços e utilidades. Isso amplia a disparidade regional em relação a áreas como a Patagônia, que registrou apenas 2,5%.

O Instituto Nacional de Estatística e Censos (INDEC) informou que o NEA, composto por Chaco, Corrientes, Formosa e Misiones, apresentou um aumento de preços de 4,1% em março. Este índice superou o do Noroeste (4,0%), Cuyo (3,2%) e Patagônia (2,5%), posicionando o NEA como a região mais afetada.

Alimentos e bebidas não alcoólicas subiram 4,5% na área, com impacto significativo de carnes e derivados. Os serviços regulados tiveram alta de 7,4%, impulsionados por utilidades, transporte e educação, onde os aumentos chegaram a 22,7% devido ao início do ano letivo.

No acumulado do primeiro trimestre, o NEA registrou 11,5%, acima da média nacional de 9,4%, com a inflação interanual em 33,4% frente a 32,6% em todo o país. Os serviços subiram 6,1%, superando os bens, que tiveram alta de 3,5%, o que pressiona os gastos das famílias.

O governo nacional atribuiu parte da alta a fatores externos, como combustíveis, e previu uma desaceleração à frente. No entanto, os números indicam uma dinâmica inflacionária mais intensa no NEA, onde a média de renda é inferior ao nível nacional.

Colombia's National Administrative Department of Statistics (Dane) reported that annual inflation for January 2026 stood at 5.35%, up 13 basis points from January 2025. Driven by lodging services, restaurants, and food, the figure slightly exceeded market expectations. This data will guide the Central Bank's monetary policy decisions.

Building on Dane's initial report of 5.29% annual inflation for February 2026—below January's 5.35% and market expectations around 5.5%—Anif analysis credits a $500-per-gallon gasoline price reduction as the main factor. Without it, inflation would have accelerated to 5.38%. Services and food exerted upward pressure, offset by regulated price relief.
