> Spain reported consumer prices soaring at the highest annual rate in 37 years. Alongside that came slightly softer-than-forecast German economic data.

> Germany on Wednesday reported a drop in harmonized consumer-price inflation to 8.2% in June from 8.7% in May, while the country measure fell to 7.6% from 7.9%. This was against expectations for a slight rise. Services inflation was a big driver of the drop, helped by short-term policy measures that cut public-transport ticket prices and fuel duties, noted Jessica Hinds, senior Europe economist at Capitol Economics.

> While that should help keep German inflation under control until August, there is “little reason to think that underlying price pressures in Germany have eased,” she said, noting that “survey measures” indicate “price pressures remain intense.”
