Latest German regional CPI data, released earlier than expected - 29 Dec 2017

  • CPI y/y +1.8% vs +1.8% prior

Data was initially scheduled for 1100 GMT. No release yet for Brandenburg.

Meanwhile, North Rhine Westphalia numbers are out as well via Bloomberg:

  • CPI m/m +0.5% vs +0.3% prior
  • CPI y/y +1.5% vs +1.8% prior

As mentioned, looks like market expectations are right on point for the German overall number as the regional data points also suggest stronger m/m readings but slightly weaker y/y readings relative to the prior data.
