Sorted by total, highest first. Every row is indexed to the last month complete before the first day in office ("from" marks a start that had to move because that period had no data, or because the period cut it); Levels are per cent changes, rates are differences in pp; "per year" compounds levels and divides rates. Tenures with under 12 months, or under three observations, are left out. % change on a year earlier · INDEC consumer price index: Greater Buenos Aires to 2013, San Luis province's index (DPEyC) 2014-2016, the national index since December 2016, chained; change over twelve months · Argentina data · as of Aug 2026.
