Inflation rate falls to 5,7%
Media groups report that South Africa's inflation rate, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) has from 6,1% in April to 5,7% in May.
Economists say that as a result interest rates are unlikely to go up any time soon and some analysts believe that the lower inflation rate could lead to an interest rate cut later this year.
