Malaysia Inflation Likely to Remain Stable -- Market Talk

Dow Jones

Dec 23, 2025

0118 GMT - Malaysia's inflation risks may remain skewed to the downside, with limited upside pressure in the near term, TA Securities analyst Farid Burhanuddin says in a note. Globally, commodity prices are expected to stay soft amid easing energy costs, smoother supply chains and fewer transport bottlenecks, he says. Domestically, any adjustments to administered prices, including energy tariffs or subsidy rationalization, will likely be gradual to cushion vulnerable households, he reckons. Monetary policy remains accommodative, with the policy rate at 2.75%, supporting stable financing conditions, he adds. TA Securities expects 2025 inflation to be at 1.4%, with 2026 inflation expected to remain contained at 1.5%-2.0%. (yingxian.wong@wsj.com)
