Persistent Inflation Challenges Eurozone, Core Prices Higher Than Anticipated Inflation in the Eurozone slightly cooled to 2.6% in February, yet it remained above economists’ expectations, signaling a persistent inflationary pressure within the economy. Despite anticipations of a decline, core inflation, which excludes volatile items such as energy, food, alcohol, and tobacco, also exceeded forecasts at 3.1%. Notably, food, alcohol, and tobacco prices led with a 4% inflation rate, closely followed by services at 3.9%. Meanwhile, energy prices continued their downward trend, albeit at a slower pace, influenced by the ongoing geopolitical tensions stemming from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Big banks are getting what they want from Washington READ MORE Oil prices rise amid reports Iranian consulate hit by missile strike in Damascus READ MORE What is the Best Gold and Silver to Buy?
