October inflation increased to 7.6%. Economists had expected it to ease to 7.4%. | News24_Business

The oil and fat products category, which drove food inflation higher for many months, had recorded its second consecutive month of disinflation. Prices fell by 1% after a 6.1% decrease in September.

Transport inflation was driven by vehicle prices - which climbed to 6.1% from 5.8% in September. This is mainly due to higher used vehicle prices - which are, on average, 14.5% more expensive than they were a year ago, Kelly said.As for household utilities - detergents such as washing powder and dishwashing liquids and health insurance premiums all reflected increases.

Economists expect the Reserve Bank to hike interest rates by 75 basis points at its next meeting on Thursday - given risks around the inflation outlook and a"softer" rand exchange rate, the Bureau for Economic Research said in its weekly overview.In times of uncertainty you need journalism you can trust.

Business Maverick: Tech is going through a midlife crisis, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’tIs a midlife crisis a real thing, or just a thing we think is a thing? The key identifier of a midlife crisis is the slightly balding guy in a convertible sports car. He’s not slightly balding. He had hair implants. His hair is fine. I thought that it might be the guy in the piss pot helmet taking his Harley out for a Sunday morning breakfast run. He could take the lead in the sequel to 'Silence of the Lambs' when they do one !!!
