Inflation fell to 1.4% in March
after four straight monthly gains, ISTAT said Thursday,
confirming its preliminary estimates. The consumer price index
was steady on the month and 1.4% up on March 2016, the
statistics office said. In February the year-on-year rise was
1.6%, the highest in six years. The so-called 'inflation
trolley' of most frequently bought goods was 0.9% down on
February and 2.3% up on the same month in 2016.
