２月企業物価、０．６％上昇　１４カ月ぶり伸び率拡大―日銀

　日銀が１２日発表した２月の国内企業物価指数（速報値、２０２０年平均＝１００）は１２０．３となり、前年同月比０．６％上昇した。プラスは３６カ月連続で、伸び率は１４カ月ぶりに拡大。昨年２月は電力価格高騰を受けた政府の支援策が始まって物価上昇率が抑制されたため、その反動が出た格好となった。（2024/03/12-11:08）

Japanese producer prices rose 0.6 pct from a year earlier in February, up for the 36th straight month, the Bank of Japan said Tuesday.
   The producer price index, which measures the costs of goods traded between businesses, stood at 120.3 against the 2020 base of 100.
   The index grew at a faster rate for the first time in 14 months, after its rise was curbed by a government measure to ease the burden of higher electricity bills that began a year before.
   The rate of increase had slowed to 0.2 pct in January and last December, signaling that inflation driven by materials and energy price rises was waning.
   "The trend (of waning inflation) has not changed much," a BOJ official said.
