European inflation took a break

E

For the first time in a year and a half, inflation in the countries whose currency is the euro has not risen further. This is reported by the European statistical office Eurostat on the basis of preliminary figures. Inflation reached 10% this month.

A month earlier, inflation was still 10.6 percent. As a result, the pace at which consumer prices are rising in the euro area appears to have slowed somewhat.

Inflation is mainly lower because petrol and diesel have become cheaper compared to a month earlier. Gas and electricity prices have also fallen.

Nevertheless, energy prices are still responsible for most of the monetary devaluation. Prices for food, alcohol and tobacco also rose again.
