Gold prices hit 4-month high on Fed easing hopes, tariff uncertainty
Investing.com -- France’s consumer price inflation rate increased to 0.9% year-on-year in June, up from 0.6% in May, the country’s statistics office INSEE confirmed on Friday.
The final reading matched both the preliminary figure and analysts’ expectations.
The domestic consumer price index rose 1.0% year-on-year in June, increasing from 0.7% in May.
This uptick was primarily driven by accelerating service prices and a smaller decline in energy costs.
Core inflation, which excludes volatile items, edged up to 1.2% in June from 1.1% in the previous month.
The harmonized inflation rate is adjusted to allow for comparison with other euro zone countries.
