Source discrepancies

What the warehouse found when it checked this series: the same figure from two agencies, splice overlaps, published rates against ones recalculated from the index, and outliers.

    The value moves 28% in one period, from 205.7 to 264.1, far outside its usual range.

    Outlier: 205.7 and 264.1, difference 28.4.

    Transport rises 28% in June 2008 and stays there (264, 272, 272). That is the global fuel price peak and the domestic price revision that followed, not a keying error - a typo reverts, this does not.
