Saudi Arabia’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) inched up by 0.1% month‑over‑month in October 2026, breaking a flat price trend recorded in September. The latest data, updated on 15 November 2026, show a modest return of price growth after the indicator held at 0.0% in the previous month.
On a month‑over‑month basis, October’s “actual” reading reflects how prices changed compared with September, while the “previous” figure captured September’s change relative to August. The move from 0.0% to 0.1% suggests that consumer prices have begun to rise again, albeit very cautiously, pointing to a still-muted inflation environment in the Kingdom. Investors and policymakers will be watching upcoming releases to gauge whether this uptick develops into a more sustained trend.
