Podcast: Die ekonomie minuut
Episode: It is all about inflation and the repo rate decision this week
Description: This week's economic news is about the latest consumer price inflation figure and the Monetary Policy Committee's repo rate decision. For July, the headline inflation figure stood at 4.7%, but the Reserve Bank will be concerned about things that could raise it again. I think there are a few things we know and then there are other stories in the newspaper.
