Monthly headline inflation also dropped to -3.2%, down from -0.8% in November. Annual core inflation, meanwhile, which doesn\u2019t include volatile goods such as food, rose to 8.3% in December from 7.9% \u201cdue to an unfavorable base effect,\u201d the CBE said, despite month-on-month inflation in fruit and vegetable prices <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbe.org.eg\/en\/EconomicResearch\/Statistics\/Pages\/Inflation.aspx\">falling 19.5%<\/a>. The CBE <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2018\/09\/30\/central-bank-leaves-interest-rates-unchanged-2\/\">had previously said<\/a> it expects inflation to come in at c.13% in 4Q2018 before dropping to the single digits over the course of this year \u201cafter the temporary effect of fiscal supply shock dissipates.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>The drop in inflation could bode well for interest rates<\/b>: \u201cWith headline inflation now 5.25 percentage points below the 17.25 percent benchmark \u2014 and assuming that underlying factors such as oil prices remain under control \u2014 the central bank may cut interest rates by 100 basis points at its March 28 meeting,\u201d Naeem Holding said, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2019-01-10\/egypt-s-inflation-stays-on-target-after-monthly-plunge-in-prices\">according to Bloomberg<\/a>. CI Capital\u2019s Hany Farahat agrees the CBE could cut rates during 1H2019, but other analysts say it is \u201ctoo early to tell\u201d whether declining inflation will lead the CBE to resume its monetary easing cycle, <a href=\"https:\/\/af.reuters.com\/article\/egyptNews\/idAFL8N1ZA0WA\">Reuters adds<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><b>No impact from hike in FX rate for customs on non-essential imports:<\/b> The government\u2019s recent decision to scrap the discounted customs exchange rate for non-essential imports had been expected to send inflation up by as much as 1 ppt, but has yet to register on inflation. That suggests the next few months may see \u201can interim upside,\u201d Naeem says.<\/p>\n<p><b>Still, we haven\u2019t seen the end of inflation: The government is about to test letting gasoline prices float +\/- 10%<\/b> in tandem with global oil prices. It will pilot the <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2019\/01\/08\/govt-to-implement-fuel-pricing-mechanism-on-95-octane-gasoline-in-2q2019\/\">pricing mechanism with 95 octane fuel<\/a> (which constitutes a tiny fraction of the total market) as early as 2Q2019 and could then extend the test to other grades when it next cuts energy subsidies for its 2019-20 budget cycle.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/inflation\/\">inflation<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/interest-rates\/\">interest rates<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/oil-and-gas\/\">oil and gas<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/speed-round\/\">SPEED ROUND<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"599843\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"599844\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"599844\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">4<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">Up Next<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2019\/01\/13\/what-were-tracking-this-week-and-beyond-7\/\">\r\n                            What we\u2019re tracking this week and beyond                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2019\/01\/13\/what-were-tracking-this-week-and-beyond-7\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();
