Santo Domingo.- Consumer prices inched 0.21% higher in June compared with May, paced by a 1.31% jump in foods and non alcoholic beverages.
The Central Bank said June inflation as measured by the change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) reached 0.89 percent for the first half this year, for which the annualized rate stands at 2.71 percent, measured from June 2011 to June 2012.
“The result of these measurements shows that the slowdown in the pace of growth in domestic prices during the year remains and places Dominican Republic on favorable terms to meet the inflation target established in the Central Bank's Monetary Program,” the report said.
The Central Bank said conversely, price declines were posted in housing (-0.81%) and transportation (-0.53%).

What about beer prices?...since InBev ..Bud bought the Jimenez family out we are stuck with another price fixing monopoly.....this would not be allowed in most other countries...no one here in this country made a peep except for the xenophobic morons for the wrong reasons.....Miller or Hieneken or Carlsberg would have been a great match.....but instead we get screwed on the prices by having the same monopoly the Jimenez family had

Keeping up my effort to stay in tune with "Day to Day Dominican Life" like Little Rickey:
Here is something else that jumped up in June!
"Robberies mark the presidential transition period"
With both President Leonel Fernandez (on his 71st trip abroad as President) and President-elect Danilo Medina out of the country during the three-month long transition period, the nation continues to hear of spectacular robberies and acts of violence. Recently, senator Wilton Guerrero warned he was seeing what he described as "maximum tolerance" towards crime by the security forces.
According to El Caribe, the rise in crime during the transition period is a rare occurrence, because this period is usually one of "wait and see" with hopes of a better future with the new administration.

Yesterday, Monday 9 July in Maimon, Monsignor Nouel province (Bonao), two men allegedly attempted to steal a Philip Morris truck loaded with Marlboro cigarettes. Three people were wounded during the incident, including an employee of Philip Morris.
On Sunday, 8 July, 14 people allegedly robbed the Unipollo poultry company in the community of Manga Larga near Cutupu, between La Vega and Santiago and took an undisclosed amount of money and equipment.
That same day another group of men carrying rifles held up the branch office of the La Vega Real Cooperative in the town of Pimentel, in San Francisco de Macoris. The list is long and includes a robbery of a truck from the Cerro Maimon mining company that was carrying 19 tanks of gold and silver precipitate worth US$1.5 million.
