It was the third consecutive month of increases and the sharpest rise since February 2023, largely driven by persistently higher energy costs (32.7% vs 27.0% in April). Prices also rose at a faster pace for capital goods (1.4% vs 0.6%) and intermediate goods (6.0% vs 4.1%), while the decline in consumer goods prices moderated (-2.7% vs -3.2%).
