Japan June core CPI unchanged from previous year

JAPAN’S core consumer prices were unchanged in June from a year earlier, government data showed today.

The core consumer price index, which includes oil products but excludes fresh food prices, compared with economists’ median estimate for a 0.1% annual fall.

Stripping away the effect of fresh food and energy, consumer prices rose 0.4% in June from a year ago. – July 21, 2020, Reuters
