Eurozone inflation stays hot in August, ECB rate debate rages on

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 11:48:44 GMT

FRANKFURT – Eurozone inflation remained stable at 5.3 percent in August, defying expectations of a decline, and raising concerns that further interest rate hikes may be necessary to beat racing prices and send the economy into recession in the process. Ahead of the release by Eurostat and upside surprises in national data from Germany and France, analysts had projected inflation to ease to 5.1 percent from 5.3 percent in July.Importantly however, core inflation excluding energy and unprocessed food, which is seen as a bellwether for future inflation developments, came in weaker than expected and fell to 6.2 percent from 6.6 percent.ECB officials will meet in two weeks to decide whether to raise interest rates for the tenth consecutive time to 4 percent or pause at 3.75 percent to see how growth and inflation develop.Latest economic data pointed to the risk of recession in the second half, strengthening the doves’ hand in arguing for a pause. Ahead of the data release, even the hawki...
