Key Quotes
“Under almost any reasonable set of assumptions, headline CPI will start increasing at a fairly steady clip in coming months as last year’s energy price falls begin to drop out of the calculations.”
“German CPI data came in as we expected (and stronger than markets), and we expect to see a repeat on Friday with upside risks to euro area inflation. We expect a 0.1% y/y reading (markets: 0.0% y/y), up from -0.1% y/y in September.”
