Austria’s consumer price index (CPI) was unchanged on a month-over-month basis in May, with the indicator holding at 0.10%. According to the latest data update on 17 June 2026, the May reading matches the previous month’s 0.10% increase, indicating a period of short-term price stability.
The CPI figures compare price changes in May to the previous month, while the earlier reading reflected the change in the prior month versus its preceding month. With the monthly rate unchanged, the data suggest that, at least over this recent horizon, inflationary pressures in Austria have neither accelerated nor cooled further, offering a steady backdrop for households, businesses, and policymakers monitoring near-term price dynamics.
