Interest Rate Surges But Repo Rate Remains Constant

The Consumer Price Index(CPIX) surged again this month but the Reserve Bank has elected to keep repo rates steady for the first time since June 2006, I suspect because of the current energy crisis. That being said if inflation continues to rise Monetary Policy Committee will be stuck between a rock and an extremely hard place.
