Key Quotes

The expectation there is just 0.3% y-o-y headline and 1.0% y-o-y core, but risks to the headline (and perhaps both?) look to the downside after the German number yesterday. If so, market pressure will ratchet up on the ECB again even though the real economy is still enjoying a cyclical uptick within what looks to be a long-term structural downturn.”
