Fish and petroleum products pulled down PIF
Price index of first-hand domestic sales (PIF) fell by 1.4 per cent from July to August. Only twice since 2010, has PIF fallen by similar size from one month to another. The fall in PIF was driven by lower prices on fish, crude oil and refined petroleum products, while there were few product groups where prices rose.
