According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications of Japan, consumer prices in March increased by 3.2% year-on-year. Thus, inflation slowed down compared to the February value of 3.3% and became the lowest since September 2022. In particular, the growth of transport services was the weakest in the last six months – 1.6% against 1.7% in February. The cost of utilities fell by 2.8% after a decrease of 0.3% in the previous month, mainly due to the fact that electricity has become much cheaper (-8.5%). At the same time, food prices in Japan rose by 7.8%, which was the highest increase since September 1980. In February, the rise was 7.5%. The growth of prices for medical services accelerated from 0.9% to 1.3%. Clothing has risen in price by 3.6%, educational services – by 0.9%.
