BANGKOK (Reuters) - Thailand's headline consumer price index (CPI) fell 0.70% in September from a year earlier, a slightly bigger than expected decline, commerce ministry data showed on Monday.

 

That compared with a forecast for a contraction of 0.64% in a Reuters poll, and August's 0.50% drop.

 

The core CPI index rose 0.25% from a year earlier, compared with a forecast of a 0.21% increase, and against August's 0.30% rise.

Not surprising at all, the money they put into the hands of those who spent it is now gone, and still they try and paint a rosy picture.  Why is the Baht still climbing higher.  Crazy times we live in.
