Flash CPI data for August from Germany was released today at 1:00 pm BST. Report was expected to show a slowdown in annual CPI as well as slight increase in price level on a monthly basis. Data from German states released earlier today confirmed that the inflation is slowing, with all states reporting lower reading compared to July. Also, flash CPI data from Spain released earlier today also hinted at a slowdown, and even a bigger-than-expected slowdown.
