The ongoing supply shortages that are propping up home prices in many metro areas caused pending home sales in May to slump for the third consecutive month, according to the National Association of Realtors. None of the major regions saw an increase in contract activity last month.

The Pending Home Sales Index, a forward-looking indicator based on contract signings, decreased 0.8 percent to 108.5 in May from a downwardly revised 109.4 in April. The index is now 1.7 percent below a year ago, which marks the second straight annual decline and the most recent since November and December of last year.

Lawrence Yun, NAR chief economist, says it's clear the critically low inventory levels in much of the country somewhat sidetracked the housing market this spring. "Monthly closings have recently been oscillating back and forth, but this third consecutive decline in contract activity implies a possible topping off in sales," he said. "Buyer interest is solid, but there is just not enough supply to satisfy demand. Prospective buyers are being sidelined by both limited choices and home prices that are climbing too fast."

• It looks as if elements of the global reform might be postponed or not even implemented

In June 2017, according to preliminary estimates, the Italian consumer price index for the whole nation (NIC) decreased by 0.1% on monthly basis and increased by 1.2% compared with June 2016, down from +1.4% in May 2017.

In June, the lower growth of the annual rate of change of All items index was mainly due to the prices of Unprocessed food (+1.3%, from +3.8% in May) and Non-regulated energy products (+3.0%, from +6.8% in the previous month), partly offset by the increase of the prices of Services related to transport (+4.1% from +3.2% in May).

Therefore, excluding energy and unprocessed food, core inflation increased by +0.9% (0.2 percentage points higher than in May), while inflation excluding energy was +0.9% (0.1 percentage points lower than in the previous month).

The annual rate of change of prices of Goods was +0.9% (down from +1.6% in May) and that one of prices of Services was +1.5% (up from +1.4%). As a consequence, the inflationary gap between Services and Goods was positive again (+0.6 percentage points).

The annual growth rate of the broad monetary aggregate M3 stood at 5.0% in May 2017, after 4.9% in April, averaging 5.1% in the three months up to May.

The components of M3 showed the following developments. The annual growth rate of the narrower aggregate, including currency in circulation and overnight deposits (M1), stood at 9.3% in May, unchanged from the previous month. The annual growth rate of short-term deposits other than overnight deposits (M2-M1) stood at -2.9% in May, compared with -2.8% in April.

The annual growth rate of marketable instruments (M3-M2) increased to 3.1% in May, from 1.7% in April. Within M3, the annual growth rate of deposits placed by households decreased to 5.1% in May, from 5.3% in April, while the annual growth rate of deposits placed by non-financial corporations increased to 7.5% in May, from 7.1% in April. Finally, the annual growth rate of deposits placed by non-monetary financial corporations (excluding insurance corporations and pension funds) increased to 2.8% in May, from 1.4% in April.

Prices rose 1.1% month-on-month in June, reversing the previous three months' falls.

Annual house price growth rises to 3.1%

Gap in house price growth between strongest and weakest performing regions in Q2 is the smallest on record

Commenting on the figures, Robert Gardner, Nationwide's Chief Economist, said: "UK house prices rebounded in June, with prices rising by 1.1% during the month, erasing the decline recorded over the previous three months. However, monthly growth rates can be volatile, even after accounting for seasonal effects. "The annual rate of house price growth, which gives a better sense of the underlying trend, continues to point to modest price gains. Annual house price growth edged up to 3.1% from 2.1% in May. In effect, after two sluggish months, annual price growth has returned to the 3-6% range that had been prevailing since early 2015.

As reported by the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis), the index of import prices increased by 4.1% in May 2017 compared with the corresponding month of the preceding year. In April 2017 and in March 2017 the annual rates of change were +6.1%, each. From April 2017 to May 2017 the index fell by 1.0%.

The index of import prices, excluding crude oil and mineral oil products, increased by 3.6% compared with the level of a year earlier.

The index of export prices increased by 2.2% in May 2017 compared with the corresponding month of the preceding year. In April 2017 and in March 2017 the annual rates of change were +2.6% and +2.3%, respectively. From April 2017 to May 2017 the export price index fell by 0.2%
