In a recent economic update, Australia's weighted mean Consumer Price Index (CPI) remained unchanged at 3.4% in November 2025, maintaining the same rate recorded in October 2025. This data, released on January 7, 2026, indicates a pause in inflationary fluctuations for the country.

The year-over-year comparison, which examines the change from the same month a year ago, showed that there has been no movement in this specific measure of inflation between October and November. The weighted mean CPI is a significant indicator as it reflects core inflation trends by excluding volatile items, providing a clearer picture of the underlying inflation trajectory.

The consistent 3.4% rate suggests that inflationary pressures are currently stable, offering some predictability in economic planning. However, stability at this level also implies that any anticipated progress in curbing inflation has not yet materialized, pointing to ongoing challenges for policymakers aiming to manage economic stability. As 2026 unfolds, all eyes will be on future economic measures and government interventions to guide Australia through its economic landscape.
