[Survey: South Korea's inflation rate is expected to remain stable in July] The Wall Street Journal's survey on South Korea's overall inflation rate in July showed that the CPI will rise by 2.2% year-on-year, the same as in June. Following the flat month-on-month growth last month, the index is expected to rise slightly by 0.2% in June. Chun Kyu-yeon, an economist at Hana Securities, said that price pressure from the demand side remains weak, but the government's fiscal stimulus measures (including cash handouts aimed at boosting private consumption) may increase price pressure in the short term.
