Description:
Eurozone inflation increased to 2.6% in May 2024 from 2.4% in April, as both headline and core inflation came in higher than economists expected. Services inflation, an important metric for the ECB, rose to 4.1%. Markets continued to fully price in an interest rate cut by the ECB at its June meeting, following signals from policymakers that a cut is likely. Inflation has cooled significantly from a peak of 10.6% in October 2022 but has remained below 3% for the past eight months. The euro was slightly higher against the dollar and pound after the inflation release.

Consumer spending, a key driver of growth, increased slower than previously estimated as spending on goods declined. Inflation remained elevated above a 3% annual rate, driven partly by higher energy and food costs. Core inflation rose to 3.6%. Services spending growth remained solid at 3.9%, the strongest since mid-2021. The outlook remains uncertain as inflation exceeds the Fed's 2% target, potentially delaying planned rate cuts.")
