Consumer Price Developments in January 2020

Consumer Price Developments in January 2020

Summary

  • MAS Core Inflation came in at 0.3% on a year‐on‐year (y‐o‐y) basis in January, lower than the 0.6% recorded in December last year.         
    • Largely due to lower services inflation and a steeper drop in the cost of  retail & other goods.
    • Part of the fall in core inflation also reflected the impact of the rebasing of  the CPI to 2019 as the base year.
  • CPI‐All Items inflation was 0.8% y‐o‐y in January, unchanged from the previous  month.
    • This occurred as the fall in core inflation was offset by higher private  transport inflation and an increase in accommodation cost.
