Texas Roadhouse earnings missed by $0.05, revenue topped estimates
Investing.com -- Official data released on Friday revealed that inflation in Poland for May was slightly lower than anticipated.
This has reinforced market predictions that the Monetary Policy Council (MPC) of the country’s central bank may reduce interest rates, potentially in July.
The statistics office’s preliminary estimate showed that annual inflation in May was 4.1%, slightly under the 4.2% prediction from a recent poll.
This is a decrease from the 4.3% inflation rate observed in March. The central bank’s target for inflation lies between 1.5% and 3.5%.
In a surprising turn, month-on-month inflation saw a decrease of 0.2% in April.
This goes against analysts’ expectations, who had predicted an increase of 0.1%. This unexpected drop in inflation supports the market’s anticipation of a potential interest rate cut by the central bank in the near future.
