Inflation in Sweden is cooling off but still nudging prices upward. Consumer prices rose 0.5% in June compared to the previous month, while the annual inflation rate settled at 2.8%—still above the central bank’s 2% target but showing signs of easing from last year’s highs.
Editor’s Note: For Swedes, this means everyday costs are still climbing, just not as sharply as before. While 2.8% inflation is better than the spikes seen in recent years, it’s a reminder that prices aren’t dropping—they’re just rising slower. This could influence everything from grocery bills to interest rates, depending on how the central bank responds.
