Core Inflation (Trim) by Country

Trimmed-mean CPI strips the most extreme components in the cross-section each month before averaging. It is another outlier-resistant measure of underlying inflation persistence.

Why compare Core Inflation (Trim) across countries?

Trimmed-mean inflation is preferred by the BoC and the RBA (as their headline core measure) because it filters one-off shocks while retaining persistent price moves. Movements in trimmed-mean toward target are a precondition for cuts.

How to read the country list

Watch year-over-year change vs target. Compare with median CPI to see whether the trimming methodology matters for the current inflation distribution.
