【Centaline Express – Hong Kong July CPI Increases by 2.5% Year-on-Year, Reaching a Yearly Highr】 The Census and Statistics Department reports that Hong Kong's Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose by 2.5% year-on-year in July, marking the highest monthly increase since early 2024. The government attributes this rise primarily to the expiration of the rates concession in June. Excluding all government one-off relief measures, the underlying inflation rate in July was 1.2%, up from 1.0% in June. A government spokesperson stated that underlying consumer price inflation in July remains mild and is expected to stay so in the short term. Local costs may face moderate upward pressure due to ongoing economic growth in Hong Kong, while external price pressures are expected to continue easing. However, geopolitical tensions may introduce uncertainties. Centaline Commentary: The increase in inflation is clearly linked to the continuous rise in private residential rents. With strong housing demand, the Centaline Rental Index (CRI) has risen for five consecutive months by a total of 5.44%, reaching the highest level since October 2019. Meanwhile, the Centaline City Index (CCI) for property prices has adjusted downward during the same period, pushing the CRI yield to 3.22%, the highest in nine and a half years since December 2014. #HongKongEconomy #Inflation #CPI #EconomicGrowth #RealEstateTrends #RentalMarket #HousingDemand #GeopoliticalTensions #FinancialAnalysis For more details, please visit: hk.centanet.com
