Re: Desastre alemán en cifras.
Lo del crecimiento alemán puede que sea cierto ... Cierro por hoy. No quiero ver el euríbor. Buen día a todos.
The slight increase in German inflation not only highlights the stickiness of inflation but also suggests that a September rate cut is not a done deal, yet.
For the ECB, today’s data releases have not made things any easier. In fact, in terms of growth, the divergence has widened, with Germany falling behind while countries like France and Spain are enjoying a decent recovery. While German data is stagflationary, the eurozone as a whole provides a picture of a relatively solid but potentially fading recovery with sticky inflation.
Executive Board member Isabel Schnabel said last week that officials are closely watching the services sector, where prices have continued to rise at more than twice the ECB’s 2% goal.
Cada vez que leo esos comentarios ( sobre todo los de ayer) de expertos y altos cargos pienso si son retrasados o vendidos.
It was also revealed today that Spain's HICP reading read at 2.9%, which is below expectations for 3.3% but still well ahead of where the ECB would like.
According to Andrew Kenningham, Chief Europe Economist at Capital Economics, these data mean the aggregate eurozone inflation rate is unlikely to have fallen.
"Stubborn inflation will keep the Euro supported," says Matt Lewis at TopMoneyCompare.com. "The ECB won't feel rushed into delivering more cuts."
Business surveys from S&P and the Ifo institute have already pointed to a further deterioration at the start of the third quarter.
Latest survey data suggests that other eurozone countries may not be able to compensate for Germany’s weakness much longer.
Latest data appears to confirm that the economy has remained weaker than projected by ECB staff in June, which had predicted consistent 0.4 percent quarter-on-quarter growth for 2024.
Yet, with inflation still refusing to die, it will be hard for the ‘doves’ on the ECB’s Governing Council to make the case for a September rate cut to stop the economy falling back into stagnation.
“The declines cannot all be attributed to policy,” Donovan said. “So rapid a collapse in inflation rates is a reminder of just how transitory the inflation originally was.”
Para la semana que viene deberíamos aguantar el 3% sin problemas, pero para la subasta de septiembre igual me estreno en las competitivas.
