FX.co ★ Sweden’s Monthly Inflation Holds Steady at 1.0% in May, Signalling Stable Price Momentum

Sweden’s consumer price index (CPI) recorded a month‑over‑month increase of 1.0% in May 2026, unchanged from the 1.0% rise seen in the previous month. The latest data, updated on 11 June 2026, indicate that short‑term price pressures have neither intensified nor eased compared with the prior monthly reading.

On a month‑over‑month basis, the “actual” figure for May represents the change in prices relative to April, while the “previous” figure captures April’s price change compared with March. With both readings at 1.0%, the data suggest that the pace of price growth has stabilized over these consecutive months, offering markets a clearer—if still evolving—picture of Sweden’s near‑term inflation dynamics.
