- The Core Inflation rate on a year-over-year basis was reported at 5.4%, slightly above the previous month’s of 5.3%.
- On the contrary, the CPI headline inflation year-over-year was recorded at 5.5%, a bit lower than the forecasted figure of 5.6%.
Employment Situation
The European labor market seems to remain robust, with the unemployment rate staying steady at 6.5%. This is an impressive figure, matching the 25-year lows.
