In a stark shift, Taiwan's Consumer Price Index (CPI) NSA for November 2025 revealed a decline of -0.14%, down from the previous month's increase of 0.47%. This new data, updated as of December 5, 2025, highlights a clear month-over-month contraction in consumer prices, suggesting emerging deflationary pressures in Taiwan's economy.

The CPI change from October's figure of 0.47% to November's -0.14% demonstrates a significant decrease in consumer price levels, potentially reflecting reduced consumer demand or shifts in supply conditions. As CPI is a crucial economic indicator, this downturn may signal broader economic implications, impacting monetary policy considerations and economic planning.

As Taiwan responds to this economic indicator, policymakers and analysts will be closely monitoring whether this downturn represents a transient fluctuation or signals more persistent deflationary trends. The ramifications of November's CPI dip could shape economic strategies as the nation looks to balance price stability with sustainable growth.
