It has become widely recognized that, with consumer price inflation well-anchored, overly accommodative monetary policies may find their expression in asset price inflation. Higher oil prices boosted retail prices of a broad range of consumer energy products and, as a result, continued to hold up the rate of overall consumer price inflation in the first half of 2005.
