Eurozone inflation slowed in December: Eurostat
Eurozone inflation eased by more than expected in December, reaching a four-month low, driven by moderating energy prices and action from governments to cushion households from rising utility bills.
The reading is below economists' forecasts, who expected a 9.7% inflation rate in a poll by The Wall Street Journal. Energy prices in the eurozone moderated significantly in December, but were still 25.7% higher than the same month a year earlier, compared with a 34.9% increase in November. Food, alcohol and tobacco price inflation accelerated slightly to 13.8% from 13.6% a month earlier.
