About Inflation, consumer prices (annual %) — Canada
DEFINITION
Canada's Inflation, Consumer Prices (Annual %) for December 2025 came in at 2.072324%, down from November 2024's 2.381584%, indicating a continued easing in inflationary pressures. The annual inflation rate has declined steadily since December 2023's 3.879002%, reflecting slower price growth. Market focus now shifts to upcoming economic data and central bank policy adjustments amid this downward trend. Updated 7/1/26
WHY THIS INDICATOR MATTERS
Inflation prints feed directly into central-bank policy expectations and real-yield calculations, and are among the most rate-sensitive releases on the calendar. Surprises against consensus typically move rates and currencies on release. Released annually.
WHAT'S NEXT
Sigmacast's 1-month forecast points to a materially higher reading versus the latest print, with the 3-month outlook diverging from that direction. The 1-month and 3-month horizons disagree, suggesting a mixed signal. Trend-driven dynamics are the primary tailwind in the current projection.
