Eurozone inflation jumps to 2.3%
Today’s eurozone inflation report was a reminder that inflation may be largely contained but the battle is not yet over. In November, CPI climbed to 2.3% y/y, up from 2% in October and matching the market estimate. Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices and is a better gauge of inflation trends, was unchanged at 2.7% y/y, shy of the 2.8% market estimate. Services inflation, which has been persistently high, rose 3.9%.
