3 Preface This report reviews recent trends in inflation and presents the outlook for the remainder of the fiscal year. The analysis is based on trends in short-term domestic demand and supply indicators as well as imported inflation. These factors inform the assumptions for the shortterm inflation forecasting model Monthly Inflation Sub-Index Model (MISI).

4 Short-term Inflation Analysis and Forecast 1.0 Review of Outturn For April 2018, there was a deflation of 0.4 per cent, which compares to inflation of 0.3 per cent recorded for April 2017 and average inflation of 0.0 per cent for April of the last five years. Given the April 2018 outturn, annual point-to-point inflation was 3.2 per cent, below the 4.8 per cent as at April 2017 and the 3.9 per cent outturn as at March 2018 (Figure 1). Figure 1: Trend in Monthly Inflation The outturn for April 2018 was below with the 5-year monthly average for March. Deflationary pressure was prominent in all regions for April The Rural Areas (RA), however, exhibited the strongest deflationary pressure due mainly to a larger decline in the Housing, Water, Electricity and Gas (HWEG) division. Figure 2: Regional Inflation April 2018 Research Services Department 1
5 Short-term Inflation Analysis and Forecast The deflationary pressure for April 2018 resulted from a reduction in Housing, Water, Electricity, Gas & Other Fuels (HWEG). This stemmed mainly from a reduction in electricity rates for the month, due to a decline in the fuel rate. This was partly offset by inflationary impulses primarily reflected in Transport (TRAN) due to higher prices for petrol and its related products. Figure 3: Inflation Contribution Deflation for April 2018 primarily reflected reductions in electricity rates.

6 Short-term Inflation Analysis and Forecast 2.0 Factors Underpinning the Revised Forecast 2.1 Trends in demand The main indicators of domestic demand monitored by the BOJ increased for the review period. The quarterly change 12-month average of the real value of imports is estimated to have accelerated to 2.8 per cent for April 2018 relative to 1.6 per cent in March For April 2018, the estimated quarterly 12-month average change in the real value of debit and credit card transactions accelerated slightly to 2.7 per cent relative to 2.6 per cent in the previous month (see Figure 4). Figure 4: Short-term Indicators of Demand The indicators of domestic demand monitored by the BOJ increased. 1 Revised down from 1.8 per cent April 2018 Research Services Department 3
7 Short-term Inflation Analysis and Forecast 2.2 Trends in supply In April 2018, the decline in the Vegetables and Starchy Foods sub-division was slower relative to the reduction in March This was consistent with surveys carried out by the Ministry of Agriculture & Fisheries (MOA) in April 2018 which had suggested a slower pace of decline. However, surveys by the Consumer Affairs Commission (CAC) had suggested a faster pace of decline. For May 2018, all surveys suggest continued declines for agricultural prices, albeit marginal. The quarterly change of the 12-month average trend in industrial electricity sales, used as a proxy for industrial production, was largely unchanged in April 2018 relative to the previous month (see Figure 5). Domestic agriculture commodity prices declined at a slower pace in April 2018 relative to March Figure 5: Industrial Electricity Sales The indicator of industrial productivity was largely unchanged in April April 2018 Research Services Department 4
8 Short-term Inflation Analysis and Forecast 2.3 Import prices For April 2018, oil prices rose by 5.7 per cent to average US$66.33 per bbl. This increase was mainly influenced by (i)_renewed investor optimism that a trade dispute between the US and China may be resolved as US officials softened its tone on US-China trade relations and (ii)_speculation about escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Oil prices rose in April and May For May 2018, oil prices rose by approximately 5.5 per cent to average US$69.98 per bbl. This increase was mainly influenced by (i) US President Trump s withdrawal from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal and a renewal of the highest level of sanctions against the Islamic Republic (ii) declining Venezuelan crude oil production, which has reduced by 600,000 barrels per day, and (iii) the latest monthly oil market report published by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) which indicated an upward revision to its forecast for global oil demand in Figure 6: International Oil Prices Figure 7: International Grains Prices April 2018 Research Services Department 5
9 Short-term Inflation Analysis and Forecast For April 2018, the grains price index rose by 4.8 per cent. This outturn mainly reflected a weighted increase in the prices of hard wheat and rice by 11.3 per cent and 4.9 per cent, respectively. For May 2018, the grains price index is expected to rise by 3.3 per cent. This outturn is expected mainly to reflect a weighted increase in the prices of soft wheat and rice by 5.9 per cent and 5.3 per cent, respectively. 2.4 Trends in Core Inflation For April 2018, the monthly change in both the CPI without Agriculture & Fuel (CPI-AF) and the CPI without Food and Fuel (CPI-FF) was unchanged at 0.1 per cent, relative to the previous month. The Trimmed Mean (TRIM) accelerated to 0.1 per cent relative to -0.2 per cent in the previous month. As at April 2018, two of three annual point-to-point measures of core inflation, CPI-FF and TRIM, were unchanged relative to March The CPI-FF and TRIM were 2.3 per cent and 1.9 per cent, respectively. The CPI-AF decelerated to 2.5 per cent relative to 2.6 per cent in the previous month. Figure 8: Core Inflation (12-month change) The grains price index advanced for April 2018 and is expected to further advance in May Two of the three measures of annual core inflation were unchanged in April 2018 relative to the previous month. April 2018 Research Services Department 6
10 Short-term Inflation Analysis and Forecast 3.0 Revised Forecast Moderate inflation is expected for May The increase in the CPI for the month is forecasted to reflect advances in HWEG, and TRAN and FNB. The increase in HWEG is due to expected higher electricity costs for the month. TRAN is expected to reflect an increase in petrol prices. Downward pressure from FNB is anticipated due to expected marginal declines in non-processed food prices. Inflation in June and July 2018 is anticipated to mainly reflect increases in the costs of utilities and petrol, as well as in non-processed food prices due to an expected rebound. Inflation for FY2018/19 is forecasted to fall within the target range of 4.0 per cent to 6.0 per cent. The overall risks are skewed to the downside for the next four quarters (see Figure 9). The major downside risks include persistently lower prices of non-processed food in the agricultural sector and weaker than anticipated demand. The main upside risks to the inflation forecast are higher than anticipated international grain and oil prices and adverse weather. Headline inflation for FY2018/19 is anticipated to fall within the target range of 4.0 per cent to 6.0 per cent. Figure 9: Monthly Inflation Fan Chart April 2018 Research Services Department 7
11 Short-term Inflation Analysis and Forecast 3.0 Summary and Conclusion For April 2018, there was a deflation of 0.4 per cent as declines in Housing, Water, Electricity and Gas (HWEG) was partly offset by higher prices for petrol and its related products. Moderate inflation is expected in May 2018, mainly reflecting anticipated increases in HWEG and moderate price increases in vegetables and starchy foods as well as transport costs. Inflation in June 2018 is anticipated to mainly reflect increases in the costs of utilities, petrol and the prices of non-processed food. For fiscal year 2018/19, inflation is expected to remain towards the lower end of the forecast range for the next three quarters before converging towards the midpoint of the forecast range.
