Consumer Price Index (CPI)<\/strong>
Year-on-Year Analysis<\/strong>
Month-to-Month Price Changes<\/strong><\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Consumer Price Index rose 0.4% for the twelve months ending November 2025 after rising 1.6% over the twelve months ending October 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The index for Food and Non-Alcoholic Beverages decreased by 1.2% over the twelve-month period. The index for Food fell 1.2%. The indexes for Fruit, Vegetables, and Oils and Fats fell over the last twelve months, influencing the decrease in food inflation. In Contrast, four subcategories rose above one percent for the same period. The index for Bread and Cereals and Fish and Seafood both rose 1.0% while the index for Meat and Meat Products and Milk, Cheese and Eggs rose 1.5% and 1.8% respectively.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The index for Non-Alcoholic Beverages decreased by 0.7%.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Other signifcant decreases include Health (-6.8%), Furnishings, Household Equipment and Routine Household Maintenance (-3.3) and Transport (-1.6%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The index for All Items Less Food and Energy rose by 0.4%. The index for Actual Rental for Housing increased 1.5% over the last year. The index for Education (+13.1%), Restaurants and Hotels (+5.1%), Alcoholic Beverages, Tobacco and Narcotics (+2.9%), and Communication (+2.6%).<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

What is the consumer price index (CPI) measuring and how is it done?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The All Items Consumer Price Index (CPI) is the main measure of what is commonly called inflation, or headline inflation. It measures the change in prices, on average, from month to month, and from year to year of the goods and services bought by most households.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Prices are collected monthly and quarterly from supermarkets and other suppliers of goods and services. The pattern of household expenditure on these goods and services is derived from a regular household budget (or expenditure) survey (HBS). The prices and spending patterns (known as weights) are then combined to calculate the price indices for groups of goods and services and for the All Items index. These indices are based on expenditure patterns in 2006.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The All Items (or overall) index, with all of its twelve (12) component indices, is published each month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a detailed account of the methodology used in calculating the CPI, please call the National Bureau of Statistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

St John\u2019s Antigua, January 15, 2026. The Statistics Division, under the Ministry of Finance and Corporate Governance releases the CPI for Nov 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Copies of the CPI for Nov 2025 can be accessed on the National Bureau of Statistics website www.statistics.gov.ag<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

November-2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In November 2025, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose 0.3% compared to October 2025. The Food and Non-Alcoholic Beverages Index increased by 0.2% over the month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Food Index remained unchanged over the same one-month period. Five supermarket food groups recorded declines over the one month, but the decreases were offset by increases in four other categories, resulting in unchanged food inflation. Decreases were recorded for: Vegetables (-2.2%), Bread and Cereals (-0.9%), Milk, Cheese and Eggs (-0.8%), Meat and Meat Products (-0.4%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In contrast, the index for Fish and Seafood (+5.3%), Oils and Fats (+2.5%), Food Products N.E.C (+2.5%) and Sugar, Jams, Honey, Chocolate and Confectionery (+0.9%) recorded increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Non-Alcoholic Beverage Index increased by 1.7%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The index for All Items less Food and Energy rose by 0.3% over the month. The increase was influenced by increases in the indexes for Recreation and Culture (+5.3%), Goods and Services for Routine Household Maintenance (+0.4%) and Education (+0.2%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
