In an unexpected twist, Singapore's Core Consumer Price Index (CPI) for November 2025 remained unchanged at 1.20%, according to the latest data released on December 23, 2025. This stagnant figure mirrors the previous month's data, where the Core CPI also placed at 1.20% year-over-year.
The steady inflation rate suggests a pause in inflationary pressures compared to November 2024, maintaining the status quo when compared to October 2025. This stability in the core inflation rate could indicate ongoing efforts by policymakers to manage cost pressures and implies a balance in the domestic market's supply-demand dynamics.
Market analysts are now closely monitoring future months for any emerging trends or potential shifts in consumer prices as they edge towards 2026. Keeping inflation in check continues to be a crucial aspect of Singapore's economic stability, which analysts and stakeholders alike are mindful to uphold amid fluctuating global economic conditions.
