Eight single bad months in eight countries, one division each, with nothing tying them together beyond the shape and the source. Kept as one entry rather than eight near-identical ones, with every case named so none is hidden behind a summary: Bangladesh recreation 149.90 in Dec 2019 between 98.1 and 98.6; Bahrain recreation 101.7 in May 2025 between 64.3 and 67.6; DR Congo transport 98.1 in Jan 2017 between 130.5 and 131.2; Congo communication 111.2 in Dec 2009 between 72.7 and 78.2; Djibouti alcohol and tobacco 158.8 in Jun 2014 between 80.7 and 89.9; Gabon communication 100.3 in Jul 2014 between 135.0 and 138.8; Pakistan restaurants 237.3 in Apr 2019 between 119.5 and 120.8, almost exactly double; Chad housing 60.2 in Jul 2012 between 84.0 and 89.4. In every case the two neighbours agree with each other far more closely than either agrees with the flagged month, and the series continues from where it left off.
Congo, Republic ofIMFwhole seriesconfirmedCOG.CPI_*2026-09-02Series stops and later resumes
The Republic of the Congo publishes nothing between August 2018 and February 2019 -- five consecutive months across every CPI series -- and then resumes, currently reaching May 2026. Short enough that it could be a reporting delay rather than a suspension; the gap itself is not in doubt.
