German Text:
Die Konsumentenpreise sind im Januar um 0,3% gefallenDer Landesindex der Konsumentenpreise (LIK) sank im Januar 2019 im Vergleich zum Vormonat um 0,3% und erreichte den Stand von 101,3 Punkten (Dezember 2015 = 100). Gegenüber dem entsprechenden Vorjahresmonat betrug die Teuerung 0,6%. Dies geht aus den Zahlen des Bundesamtes für Statistik (BFS) hervor. Der Rückgang um 0,3% im Vergleich zum Vormonat ist auf verschiedene Faktoren zurückzuführen, unter anderem auf die im Rahmen des Ausverkaufs reduzierten Preise für Bekleidung und Schuhe. Auch die Preise für Heizöl sind gesunken, ebenso wie jene für Medikamente. Gestiegen sind hingegen die Preise für Hotelübernachtungen und jene für Elektrizität. |
