Hungary’s core consumer price index (CPI) remained unchanged in June 2026, holding at 2.0% year-over-year, according to data updated on 7 July 2026. The figure matches May 2026’s 2.0% annual reading, indicating a steady pace of underlying inflation in the economy.
The core CPI measure, which compares prices in June 2026 to those in June 2025, suggests that underlying price pressures have neither intensified nor eased compared with the previous month’s year-over-year performance. With the year-over-year rate stable for two consecutive months, the data point to a period of relative price stability in Hungary’s core inflation dynamics.
