In a surprising shift, Slovakia's EU Normalized Consumer Price Index (CPI) made a notable downturn in December 2025, as fresh data released on January 19, 2026, indicates. The current indicator reached -0.30%, representing a significant month-over-month decline from the 0.30% recorded in November 2025.

This decrease underscores a reversal trend in the Slovak economy. In November, the CPI reflected a stable, albeit modest, increase, marking an end to a previously steadier inflation trajectory. The December figures, however, highlight a transition to deflationary pressures within the market environment as Slovakia grapples with evolving economic dynamics.

Market analysts will be closely monitoring upcoming data to assess whether this downturn is a temporary anomaly or indicative of a broader deflationary phase. The outcomes could potentially influence policy decisions by national and EU authorities as they seek to balance economic growth with inflationary control mechanisms moving forward. The development further adds to the economic discourse within the Eurozone as member states respond to varied fiscal challenges.
