That took the year-on-year increase in the CPI to 1.1 percent from 0.9 percent in March.</p><p><br /></p><p>There were also increases in medical care and food prices. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast the CPI gaining 0.3 percent last month and advancing 1.1 percent from a year ago.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.warosu.org/data/ck/img/0054/11/1399312377731.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
