日本4月CPI漲3.2% 創23年來最大漲幅


日本總務省5月30日公佈了4月的日本全國消費者物價指數(CPI,2010年=100)。除去生鮮食品的綜合指數同比上升3.2%,達到103.0,連續11個月正增長。因4月消費稅由5%提升至8%的影響,日本的CPI創下時隔23年零2個月的最大漲幅。上次出現如此大的漲幅還是日本經濟進入通貨緊縮期前的1991年2月。




日本銀行(央行)估算,消費稅上漲至8%將會産生把4月的CPI同比推高1.7%的效應。考慮到這一判斷,除去增稅的影響,CPI的實際增長率為1.5%,較3月(上升1.3%)漲幅有所擴大。

分商品看,室內空調價格同比上升18.5%,汽油同比上升了6.4%。除家用電器外,洗滌劑、廚房用紙等日用品的價格漲幅也非常大。4月家庭耐用品和家庭消耗品價格的同比增長率,分別比3月增高4.1和4.9個百分點。

Japan's April consumer prices up 3.2%, most in over 23 yrs
TOKYO (Kyodo) -- Japan's consumer prices surged 3.2 percent in April from a year earlier, the fastest pace since February 1991, as the April 1 consumption tax hike lifted prices of a broad range of items, leading to a 4.6 percent plunge in household spending, the government said Friday.

The core consumer price index, excluding fresh foods, stood at 103.0 against the 2010 base of 100, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications said. The 3.2 percent increase followed a 1.3 percent gain in March.As the Bank of Japan estimates the impact of the 3-percentage-point tax hike would account for 1.7 percentage points of the overall inflation for April, the CPI increase excluding the effects of the tax rise would be 1.5 points, higher than market expectations. The core CPI increased for the 11th straight month.
