CPI inflation reading for November for the whole euro area was released today at 10:00 am GMT. As usual, release comes after data from EU member countries has been already released and therefore it did not trigger any major reaction on the market. Market expected CPI inflation in the euro area to decelerate from 10.6% YoY in October to 10.4% YoY in November. Actual reading showed deceleration to 10.0% YoY.
