"Inflation data for September was released yesterday and the headline fell marginally to provide a little relief to the Bank of England. The consumer price index fell from 3.2% year on year to 3.1%. While a single piece of data won't have too much effect on the Bank's plans, every journey starts with a single step. Factory gate prices as depicted by producer price data, continue to rise, climbing from 11.2% to 11.4% over the same period.
