Turkey Inflation Rates Reached Double Digit After 5 years

The price for the Annual consumer price increased as high as 11.29 percent in the month of March as the country faced with economic problems as Lira dropped down and the surge in oil market which is the worst condition since 2008. This caused the inflation rates to reach double digits for the first time in five years.

The policymakers are being pressured as they try to stabilize the weakened currency and at the same time sustain the growth by the start of the year. Currently, the central bank targets inflation rates from 3 to 7 percent but the March result was not as expected with the 10.7 percent reading.

Although, the Lira has been secured in the past few months because of tightening in its monetary policy. The economic growth also has shown signs of recovery in its recent fourth quarterly GDP as it rose by 3.5 percent after a drop of 1.8 percent in the past quarter which has been the worst decreased since the financial crisis.

Australian House Values Surged by 1.4 percent in March

The housing prices in the main cities in Australia accelerated in March with the fastest growth in annual basis nearly in seven years.

According to a CoreLogic, California-based property consultant, the house price index from the major towns rose to 1.4 percent in the previous month versus the gain of the other month.

Moreover, the annual growth rate of prices ascended to 12.9 percent from its previous figures of 11.7 percent. The result beat the past highest point in 2015 as well as the fastest pace recorded in May 2010.

This event triggered concerns of Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) based on speculations that it was fueled by debt which could affect banks and consumers eventually.

The central bank implemented more constricted guidelines on investments and interest-only mortgages as a means to ease the market. The RBA further increased interest rates and blamed regulatory costs.

In addition, Dudley and several of his colleagues are saying that the US economy has already lost its potential to grow as fast as before the financial crisis in 2008 due to a number of factors, such as a steadily-aging population, diminished spending powers by households, and very dismal productivity growth.
