Global Data Pod Research Rap: Inflation Monitor

Nora Szentivanyi is joined by Raphael Brun-Aguerre and Michael Hanson to discuss the latest global inflation developments. While fading last quarter’s slide in core CPI inflation, a phase of sticky inflation reflecting common global dynamics looks to be ending and will give way to more disparate 2026 outcomes. US inflation is expected to accelerate above 3%oya as an early-year rebound combines with persistent goods price pressures. At the same time, declining goods prices and moderating wage pressures should push Euro area inflation down further to 1.9% . Early 2026 signals, including the flash Euro area HICP for January and US price surveys, lend support to our views.   This podcast was recorded on 04 February 2026.   This communication is provided for information purposes only.
