Eurozone | Inflation increases slightly in May, but is still negative
Summary
Inflation increased by 0.1pp to -0.1% YoY in May, due to the moderation of falling energy prices and the increase in services inflation, which raised core inflation by 0.1pp to 0.8% YoY. We still see low and relatively stable core inflation, while oil prices will maintain headline inflation in negative territory or very low until summer.
