Latest data released by Destatis - 3 January 2020

  • Prior -0.7%
  • CPI +1.7% y/y
  • Prior +1.2%

This matches up to the earlier state readings, in that consumer inflation is seen improving in December with a decent increase in annual headline inflation. That said, there needs to be more consistency in the data to reaffirm any return back to ~2% inflation in the region.
