Mexico's Core Consumer Price Index (CPI) edged up to 0.41% in December 2025, marking a month-over-month increase from the 0.19% reported in November, according to the latest data updated on January 8, 2026. This moderate rise indicates a continuing upward trend in core inflation, reflecting changes in price levels for goods and services excluding the more volatile categories of food and energy.

The 0.22 percentage point increase underscores the gradual pressures on consumer prices, which may affect monetary policy decisions going forward. As these figures indicate the changes from one month to the next, the rise in December highlights a stronger inflationary push compared to the previous month.

Economic analysts will likely monitor these developments closely, as sustained increases in core CPI can signal broader inflationary trends. If this upward pattern persists, it could prompt policy adjustments from Mexico's central economic authorities to stave off potential overheating in the economy.
