Australia's annual inflation rate held steady at 3.8% in the year to January 2026. Prices rose 0.4% over the month (0.5% seasonally adjusted). Core inflation, measured by the trimmed mean, edged up to 3.4%.



Housing was the biggest driver, rising 6.8%, followed by recreation and culture (3.7%) and food and non-alcoholic beverages (3.1%).

Non-tradable inflation rose to 4.9%, driven by domestic factors like electricity and housing, while tradable inflation fell to 1.9% due to lower prices for items such as audio-visual products and international travel.
