October 2026 annual CPI came in at 29.77%, just 0.23 points below the 30% threshold, with monthly inflation of 2.58% suggesting momentum toward the target. The Central Bank's November 12 forecast of 29.5% year-end inflation and market expectations around 29.6% indicate most analysts expect November to stay below 30%, though geopolitical supply shocks create upside risks over the next 20 days.
