Annual inflation in the 35 OECD countries averaged 2.2 percent, 0.1 percentage points down from the 2.3 percent in September, according to the report released on Tuesday on OECD’s website.
Energy prices grew by 5.8 percent in October in the OECD countries, compared with the 7.7 percent of the previous month. Food prices grew 1.8 percent year-on-year, compared with the 1.9 percent of September. (MTI)
