ألمانيا معدل التضخم

The annual inflation rate in Germany was confirmed at 2.0% in October 2024, accelerating from September’s three-and-a-half-year low of 1.6% and matching preliminary estimates. This marked the highest inflation in three months, as services inflation (4% vs 3.8% in September) and food (2.3% vs 1.6%) accelerated while rebounding for goods prices (0.4% vs -0.3%). Additionally, energy costs declined at a slower pace (-5.5% vs -7.6%), mainly due to smaller drops in heating oil (-13.4% vs -17.9) and household energy (-3.2% vs 4.0%), amid base effects. Electricity and natural gas prices also fell by 5.5% and 0.8%, respectively. Excluding food and energy, core inflation rose to 2.9% in October from 2.7% in September. On a monthly basis, the CPI increased by 0.4%, after being flat in the previous month. Furthermore, the EU-harmonised CPI accelerated to 2.4% year-on-year from 1.8%, while rising 0.4% month-on-month after edging down 0.1% in September.
