Overview

• INDEC will publish the official September consumer price index at 4 p.m., setting the benchmark for the latest monthly inflation reading.
• The BCRA’s Market Expectations Survey pegs September inflation at 2.1%, while private estimates range roughly from 2.0% to 2.9% with many near 2.3%; CABA reported 2.2%.
• A print above 2% would end a four‑month streak below that threshold and mark the highest monthly rate since April.
• Consultoras cite exchange‑rate tension and political uncertainty in mid‑September, with notable increases reported in food, clothing, transport, and selected regulated items.
• The September figure will determine November adjustments for ANSES pensions and benefits, and early‑October price sampling points to further pressure, with EcoGo flagging a possible 2.6% for this month.
