Brazil’s consumer prices were unchanged in June from the previous month as food prices fell more than expected.

The result surprised all 40 economists surveyed by Bloomberg, whose median estimate was for an 0.11 percent increase. Annual inflation as measured by the IPCA index slowed to 4.84 percent in June, the lowest since February, the national statistics agency said.
