In the world of economic forecasts, stability can often be as telling as movement. According to recent data released on January 15, 2026, France's Consumer Price Index (CPI) Non-Seasonally Adjusted (NSA) showed no change for the month of December 2025, holding firm at 0.10%. This mirrors the unchanged rate from November 2025, indicating stability in price levels across the French economy in the month-over-month comparison.

The repeated figure of 0.10% suggests that consumer prices did not experience the fluctuations that some economists had anticipated, particularly given the dynamic nature of current global economic conditions. This could be interpreted as a sign that, while external pressures on the economy exist, they have so far not translated into significant changes at the consumer level in France.

For policymakers and market analysts, such consistency may offer a measure of predictability, though they will continue to watch for signs of either inflationary or deflationary pressures in the coming months. As France navigates a complex economic landscape, the stability in December’s CPI NSA reading will likely inform both short-term strategic decisions and long-term economic planning.
