Inflation holds steady in July as energy prices fell

Inflation remained stable in July 2026, with no change in overall price levels compared to June. Energy prices declined by 1.7% month-on-month, while still rising 6.5% over the past year. Excluding energy and unprocessed food, which are typically volatile, inflation stood at 2.9% year-on-year. The Central Statistics Office (CSO) provided these figures, noting that the harmonized index of consumer prices (HICP) showed mixed trends across different categories.
