Highlights

              

Honduras

As we expand our coverage of Latin American economies, we’ve now added the Economic Activity Indices (also known as IMAE indices) for Honduras. The dataset is sourced from the central bank and is broken down by economic sectors and sub-sectors.

In the chart below, we show year-on-year trends for the IMAE sectoral indices. There is a significant slowdown across almost all sectors of the economy during the past ten months.

Italy

We’ve added a breakdown of new vehicle registrations per fuel type from the Italian Association of the Automotive Industry. After a long dominance for diesel, 2020 marked a shift; hybrid-powered automobile registrations steadily increased (and purely electric vehicles begin taking a notable share).

The second pane of the chart highlights the moment the trend gathered pace: hybrid car registrations began outpacing their diesel equivalents in July 2021. These trends look likely to continue; in November 2022, the EU reached an agreement to effectively ban new non-electric cars from 2035.

Australia

We’ve added a new dataset from the Australian Bureau of Statistics that focuses on living costs, broken down by household type. 

The chart tracks cost-of-living indices for various segments of society. The inflation rate is displayed in the second pane. Unsurprisingly, over the past year, everything is going up. However, it is notable that “employee households” – where the principal source of income is wages and salaries – are currently the ones worst affected; their living costs are up more than 9 percent compared with a year earlier.
