February 23rd, 2010 | No Comments

Singapore’s January CPI edged up 0.2% on-year, weaker than economist expectations of +0.7% but above flat December reading.

CPI +0.4% on-month in adjusted terms, also weaker than +0.7% poll expectations. Muted increase mostly reflects weaker housing component; housing component of price basket has also been increased to 25% from 22% as part of rebasing of index, which takes place every five years.

However, CPI has risen for first time in 10 months which suggests that while economic recovery continues in Singapore and the region, inflation is not yet seen as a pressing problem for policymakers.
