FX.co ★ Oman’s Monthly Inflation Rebounds in July, CPI Turns Positive at 0.7%

Oman’s consumer price momentum strengthened in July 2026, with the month-over-month Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising 0.7%, according to data updated on 13 August 2026. This marks a notable turnaround from the previous month’s 0.6% decline on a monthly basis.

The latest reading shows that price dynamics have shifted from deflationary to inflationary territory within a single month. The “previous” figure of -0.6% reflected the change in prices in the earlier month compared with its prior month, while the current 0.7% captures the change in prices in July relative to June. The swing suggests a renewed build-up in short-term price pressures in Oman’s economy.

Market participants and analysts will be watching upcoming releases to determine whether July’s rebound represents the start of a sustained inflation trend or a temporary adjustment following June’s price drop. For now, the data underlines increased volatility in Oman’s month-to-month inflation path during mid-2026.
