Russians were told that it will become cheaper even if prices on everything rise
Inflation rates in Russia accelerated in July, but even with the general rise in prices, there are some items that are getting cheaper.
Anna Gondusova, Client Relations Director at Alfa Capital Management Company, told us that prices in Russia will become cheaper this summer.
In a comment to the Prime agency, she said that the price reduction would primarily affect agricultural products.
Seasonal vegetables and fruits will become cheaper as the shelves fill with the new year's harvest, even as prices for other goods rise.
In addition, the summer season provides an opportunity to update your wardrobe relatively inexpensively. This opportunity appears against the background of low demand and changing collections.
In such cases, sellers reduce prices for the existing assortment. With the start of the business and school seasons, this opportunity will no longer exist, the expert emphasized.
There are also preconditions for a decrease in real estate prices. The stimulus for this will be the termination of the preferential mortgage program.
But Gondusova pointed out that for now this only concerns a few objects. However, the trend may gain momentum.
Earlier, the Ministry of Labor announced the amount of the single benefit for children.
