From
Bloomberg :
Turkish inflation accelerated to the highest in 19
months in November and core inflation surged to a four-year high after
central bank measures to weaken the lira pushed up import costs.
The
inflation rate rose to 9.5 percent from 7.7 percent a month earlier, the
statistics office in Ankara said on its website today. The median estimate of
eight economists surveyedby Bloomberg was 9 percent. In the month, prices rose 1.7 percent. The
central bank’s preferred measure of core inflation jumped to 8.2
percent, the highest since June 2007.
