Consumer prices in Palestine fell 43.19% year-on-year in July 2026, deepening from a 40.04% decline in June and marking another sharp drop in consumer prices. The continued year-on-year decline largely reflects the normalization of prices in Gaza following the exceptionally high price levels recorded previously. Prices in the Gaza Strip plunged 66.27%, while prices increased 1.90% in Jerusalem J1 and 1.67% in the West Bank. On a monthly basis, the CPI fell 1.68% in July, compared with a 1.6% decline in June. The monthly drop was driven by lower prices for eggs (-8.20%), fresh vegetables (-5.19%), petrol (-4.11%), diesel (-3.12%), fresh fruit (-2.41%), gas (-2.10%), fresh chicken (-1.61%), and vegetable oils (-1.40%).

Palestine CPI Slides 43% in July

The Norges Bank kept its policy rate steady at 4.25% in August, in line with market expectations, as inflation slowed more than anticipated over the summer. CPI inflation fell to 3% in July, while underlying inflation declined to 2.7%. However, both measures remain above the central bank’s 2% target, meaning policymakers believe it is too early to conclude that inflation is sustainably moving lower. The Bank therefore maintained its restrictive monetary policy stance and warned that another rate hike could still be necessary. Economic activity and labour-market conditions have developed broadly as expected, although housing prices fell sharply in July and construction remains weak. The krone has recovered somewhat after weakening earlier in the summer. The next major signal will come in September, when new economic forecasts are published and policymakers reassess the future path of interest rates.
