-- 加拿大统计局周一表示,3月份加拿大消费者价格指数(CPI)同比上涨2.4%,高于2月份的1.8%。 3月份的CPI低于丰业银行此前预测的2.6%的同比涨幅。 加拿大统计局在一份声明中指出,推动整体通胀价格上涨的主要因素是能源价格,尤其是汽油价格,而这又受到中东冲突的影响。剔除汽油价格后,3月份CPI同比涨幅为2.2%,低于2月份的2.4%。 加拿大统计局补充道,3月份CPI未经季节性调整后的环比上涨0.9%,经季节性调整后的环比上涨0.5%。 3月份能源价格同比上涨3.9%,而2月份则同比下降9.3%。 3月份能源价格环比上涨13.1%。 汽油价格上涨是CPI同比加速上涨的主要驱动因素,3月份消费者购买汽油的价格比去年同期上涨了5.9%。总部位于渥太华的机构补充说,由于中东冲突造成的供应冲击,汽油价格环比飙升21.2%,创历史最大涨幅。 然而,由于与2025年3月的价格进行比较,这一月度影响在同比上有所减弱。2025年3月的价格包含了现已取消的消费者碳税。自2026年4月起,取消消费者碳税将不再影响12个月的CPI走势,这将在下个月发布的CPI中得到体现。 3月份,商店购买的食品价格同比上涨4.4%,此前2月份的涨幅为4.1%。 3月份新鲜蔬菜价格同比上涨7.8%,创下自2023年8月(+8.7%)以来的最大涨幅,此前2月份的涨幅为0.5%。 加拿大统计局发布的月度和季度消费者价格指数(CPI)报告衡量的是消费者为一篮子商品和服务(例如食品、能源、车辆、医疗保健、服装和住房)支付的价格水平。由于食品和能源价格波动较大,核心CPI剔除了这两项,因此受到市场和加拿大央行的密切关注,被视为潜在通胀压力的指标。
