Tag #Euro Area Inflation

How does the current inflation rate in Germany compare to broader trends in the euro area, and what are the potential implications?

The stable inflation rate, despite Germany's economic contraction, mirrors a broader trend of re-accelerating inflation in the euro area. The European Central Bank's view that disinflation is "well on track" is seemingly at odds with the persistent inflation above its target in Germany. The upcoming German election on February 23rd will likely feature continued debate about the country's economic performance.
