Sweden’s Annual Inflation Eases to 0.9% in October, Extending Disinflation Trend

Sweden’s consumer price inflation slowed further in October 2026, with the year-over-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) easing to 0.9%, down from 1.1% in September 2026. The latest reading, updated on 5 November 2026, underscores a continued moderation in price pressures across the Swedish economy.

Both the current and previous figures are calculated on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month’s price level with the same month a year earlier. The move from 1.1% in September to 0.9% in October suggests that inflation is losing momentum, potentially reinforcing expectations that price growth in Sweden remains contained as the year progresses.
