EUROZONE DATA
Eurozone flash inflation for January printed at +2.8% Y/Y (vs +2.7% cons; +2.9%prior) while core (ex-energy/food) was +3.3% Y/Y (vs 3.2% cons; +3.4% prior). Monthly NSA prints were -0.4% for headline and -0.9% for core.
- The unrounded prints were 2.752% Y/Y, -0.379% M/M for headline inflation, and 3.275% Y/Y for core - in line with MNI's pre-release tracking estimates of 2.7-2.8% and 3.2-3.3% respectively, and suggesting a more marginal upside surprise vs the consensus coming into the week.
- The national releases over the past two days have been in line with analyst expectations on aggregate, though an Italy print (released alongside the EZ figure) slightly on the firmer side nudged the Eurozone print toward the higher end of expectations.
- We await the ECB's seasonally-adjusted series due out later today for a better indication of sequential momentum.
- Of the core components, non-energy industrial goods were +2.0% Y/Y (vs +2.5% prior) while services were +4.0% (vs +4.0% prior). Monthly NSA rates were negative for both (-2.4% for NEIG, -0.1% for services), despite stronger German services prices on the back of a hike in restaurant VAT.
- Food, alcohol, and tobacco inflation was 5.7% Y/Y (vs 6.1% prior), with the disinflation trend continuing.
- At a country level, the November Y/Y prints were lower (or the same) in 11/20 countries (with no public data yet in Slovenia). On a monthly basis, 5 countries saw M/M NSA deflation.
