Argentina’s consumer price index (CPI) rose 2.9% month-over-month in February 2026, exactly matching the 2.9% increase recorded in January 2026, according to data updated on 12 March 2026. The figures indicate that, on a month-over-month basis, inflation has stabilized rather than accelerating or decelerating at the start of the year.
The February reading, compared to January, shows that price dynamics remained unchanged over the two months. In January 2026, CPI had also increased by 2.9% versus the previous month, and February’s identical gain suggests that recent price pressures in the Argentine economy are holding at a steady pace. Investors and policymakers will now be watching upcoming releases closely to see whether this apparent plateau in monthly inflation becomes a more durable trend.
