ECB: Macro Since Last ECB: Inflation - Hot Services Trend But Less Than Mid-2024

Jun-03 18:42
  • The ECB’s seasonally adjusted HICP data for May saw services inflation pull back abruptly to 0.17% M/M from what had been a particularly strong 0.70% M/M.
  • It saw 3M/3M momentum ease to 3.95% annualised from 4.10% in April.
  • That’s comfortably above the 3.24% Y/Y but less worrying than a previous trend based on residual seasonality considering the previous similarities with last year’s momentum acceleration to a high of 5.2% in May 2024.
