Since July last year and after several quarters of steady declines, the annual change in the consumer price index (CPI) for non-tradables, excluding food and regulated items (NT-EFR), tended to stabilize up to November 2014, then adopted a rising trend that became more pronounced at the start of 2015 (Graph B2.1).This occurred at the same time as economic growth and aggregate demand experienced a setback and with an output gap that has entered negative territory, according to the estimates shown in Chapter 4 of this report.
