Egyptian economist Medhat Nafea said the October slowdown in inflation did not mean that prices had fallen, attributing it partly to base effects and seasonal factors. He said the pound’s depreciation and higher fuel prices had not yet been fully reflected in inflation data and could push up the prices of some goods in November.
Further pound weakness raises the cost of imported feed ingredients, while higher fuel costs can add to transport and production expenses. This creates upward cost pressure on Egyptian buyers, though the article gives no commodity-specific price impact.
