  "account": "Earlier this week, Argentina's national statistics agency INDEC reported that inflation in the country rose to 2.2% in October, according to a recent report. This marks the second consecutive monthly increase, with September seeing a reading of 1.9% . It is the first time in three months that inflation has surpassed the 2% threshold. The October figure also marked the highest level since April of the same year, when inflation was recorded at 2.6%. However, there were some positive developments for the government led by Javier Milei. Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, stood at 1.5% in October, a slight decrease from 1.7% in the previous month. This is the lowest core inflation has been since July 2025, when it was recorded at 1.3%. Before that, the lowest reading was in November 2017, at 1.3%. Year-on-year, prices rose by 33.1%, while inflation for the first ten months of 2026 reached 26.3%. This story is still developing, and further updates are expected.",
