Belgium CPI Shows Slight Upturn in May, Eases Deflation Fears

Belgium CPI Shows Slight Upturn in May, Eases Deflation Fears

In a notable economic shift, Belgium's Consumer Price Index (CPI) climbed to -0.16% in May 2025, marking a positive swing from the -0.83% recorded in April 2025. This development, updated on 28 May 2025, represents a much-anticipated move towards price stabilization in the Belgian market.

The month-over-month data reflects a decrease in the rate of deflation, indicating that while prices are still slightly falling compared to previous months, the decline is moderating. The transition from a deeper deflationary stance in April to a less steep downward curve in May suggests potential easing of deflationary pressures within the economy.

Economists and market analysts will be keenly observing this development, as a continued trend towards price normalization could herald stronger consumer confidence and spending in the forthcoming months. The adjustment in the CPI is a signal that Belgium might be on a path to overcoming recent economic strains, paving the way for more stable growth conditions.
