Increase in domestic and import markets

The total index increased by 1.3 per cent from September to October. Higher prices of petroleum and petroleum products were the main reason for the increase.

;>Price development for some SITC groups. 2000=100

Prices of mineral fuels, lubricants and related materials increased by 7.3 per cent from September to October. Prices of petroleum and petroleum products increased by 11.5 per cent, while electricity decreased by 2.6 per cent. The increase was mainly due to restrictions within production in the oil industry. Plenty of rain and satisfactory levels in the water depots were the main reasons for the drop in electricity prices. Crude materials showed a decrease of 0.6 per cent. Prices of food showed a decrease of 0.5 per cent. In the former group the majority of the products showed a decrease except fish, meat and cereals.

The overall domestic market showed a price increase of 1.8 per cent. The main reason for this increase was higher prices of petroleum and petroleum products by 11.5 per cent.

The 12-month rate, October 2003 to October 2004: 5.9 per cent increase

The overall 12-month rate showed that prices have increased by 5.9 per cent. The increase was mainly due to higher prices in all the main groups, particularly the development in petroleum and petroleum products and crude materials. Petroleum and petroleum products went up 38.0 per cent. Crude materials went up 10.2 per cent, due to increased prices of metalliferous ores and metal scrap and paper. Prices of food increased by 1.4 per cent compared with figures from October 2003, caused by higher prices of fish, sugar, dairy products and coffee. Manufactured goods increased by 6.5 per cent. The main reason for this rise was higher prices of metals.
