What this value means

All-items CPI rose 1.8% YoY in May 2026 (index 102.8, base 2024=100; +0.7% MoM) per the SingStat page loaded 2026-07-20 and the joint MAS/MTI release of 23 Jun 2026 (https://www.mti.gov.sg/newsroom/consumer-price-deveiopments-in-may-2026/ — note the typo 'deveIopments' with capital I is in the real slug). MAS Core Inflation was 1.4% YoY in May. Annual averages: 2025 inflation 0.9% (index 100.9); 2024 2.4% (base year, index 100.0). MAS/MTI raised the 2026 forecast ranges for both core and headline inflation to 1.5-2.5% (April 2026 MPS) on the Strait-of-Hormuz energy price shock; passthrough is expected to lift prints in H2 2026. June 2026 CPI due around 23 Jul 2026 — re-verify shortly. History YoY values below computed from the official 2024-base all-items index series (SingStat via data.gov.sg datastore resource d_bdaff844e3ef89d39fceb962ff8f0791; full-text search disabled, use filters={"DataSeries":"All Items"}); computed Apr/May values match published release figures exactly. Access quirks: legacy singstat.gov.sg deep URLs (e.g. /find-data/search-by-theme/...) return 404 — the CPI page moved to /find-data/explore-data-themes/economy-prices/consumer-price-index/latest-news-data.
