If this pattern continues, inflation of the economy should increase to around 10% in November prompting them to forecast mid-month inflation at 9.94% yoy, says Societe Generale. The bank adds there is a considerable upside risks to their 2015 and 2016 annual inflation forecasts of 8.8% and 6.6% respectively.
